#1 New York Times Bestseller
âGo Set a Watchman is such an important book, perhaps the most important novel on race to come out of the white South in decadesâ¦
   â New York Times (Opinion Pages)A landmark novel by Harper Lee, set two decades after her beloved Pulitzer Prizeâwinning masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird.
Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise FinchââScoutââreturns home to Maycomb, Alabama from New York City to visit her aging father, Atticus. Set against the backdrop of the civil rights tensions and political turmoil that were transforming the South, Jean Louiseâs homecoming turns bittersweet when she learns disturbing truths about her close-knit family, the town, and the people dearest to her. Memories from her childhood flood back, and her values and assumptions are thrown into doubt. Featuring many of the iconic characters from To Kill a Mockingbird, Go Set a Watchman perfectly captures a young woman, and a world, in painful yet necessary transition out of the illusions of the pastâa journey that can only be guided by oneâs own conscience.
Written in the mid-1950s, Go Set a Watchman imparts a fuller, richer understanding and appreciation of the late Harper Lee. Here is an unforgettable novel of wisdom, humanity, passion, humor, and effortless precisionâa profoundly affecting work of art that is both wonderfully evocative of another era and relevant to our own times. It not only confirms the enduring brilliance of To Kill a Mockingbird, but also serves as its essential companion, adding depth, context, and new meaning to an American classic.
