Chelsea House Publishers To Kill a Mockingbird, New Ed

Published in 1960 and awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1961, To Kill a Mockingbird explores the often-tenuous connections that bind a family and a community together. The coming-of-age tale of its young narrator, Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, of Maycomb, Alabama, is interwoven with explorations of the issues of prejudice, innocence, compassion, and hypocrisy. This new collection of critical essays examines this classic work, complete with an annotated bibliography, an introductory essay from master scholar Harold Bloom, and an index for easy reference.
