Description: Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise Finch-"Scout"-returns home to ì Maycomb, Alabama from New York City to visit her aging father, ì Atticus. Set against the backdrop of the civil rights tensions ì and political turmoil that were transforming the South, Jean ì Louise's homecoming turns bittersweet when she learns disturbing ì truths about her close-knit family, the town, and the people ì dearest to her. Memories from her childhood flood back, and her ì values and assumptions are thrown into doubt. Featuring many of ì the iconic characters from To Kill a Mockingbird, Go Set a ì Watchman perfectly captures a young woman, and a world, in ì painful yet necessary transition out of the illusions of the ì past-a journey that can only be guided by one's own ì conscience.

Written in the mid-1950s, Go Set a Watchman imparts a ì fuller, richer understanding and appreciation of the late Harper ì Lee. Here is an unforgettable novel of wisdom, humanity, passion, ì humor, and effortless precision-a profoundly affecting work of ì art that is both wonderfully evocative of another era and ì relevant to our own times. It not only confirms the enduring ì brilliance of To Kill a Mockingbird, but also serves as ì its essential companion, adding depth, context, and new meaning ì to an American classic.
