The residents of Maycomb, Alabama-where Atticus Finch once defended a black man falsely accused of rape by a white woman-have opinions may surprise you.
This is also the time during which Go Set A Watchman is set. This decision would integrate school systems and really start the Civil Rights Movement rolling. It's like the beta test before the final product.īecause Lee wrote it before Mockingbird, that places the time of writing in the mid-1950's, smack in the middle of the landmark Supreme Court decision on Brown vs. This makes Go Set a Watchman not just Mockingbird 2, but Mockingbird 1.0. But with the editor's guidance, Lee re-shaped the book into what we now know as To Kill a Mockingbird. So what happened? Well, Lee submitted it to a publisher, who rejected it. The story is that Harper Lee wrote Go Set a Watchman prior to penning the iconic Mockingbird. Beliefs that are (to put it mildly) different from her own. She now goes by her given name, Jean Louise, and when she returns home to Maycomb, Alabama, after living in New York City, she has to come to terms with her father's beliefs. In that novel, Scout Finch-everyone's favorite tomboy in overalls from To Kill a Mockingbird-is all grown up. That list-and the world as we know it-changed on Jwhen To Kill a Mockingbird got a sequel that, until that year, no one knew existed: Go Set a Watchman. Scout finds out that her father, Atticus Finch, harbors racist beliefs? After all, what could possibly happen in a sequel? Daisy throws herself onto Gatsby's coffin? Holden tries L.A.? These books all stand alone, right? They don't need no stinkin' sequel.
