A New Book from Harper Lee
by evelyn
That's right, you read that correctly! Harper Lee will publish her second book this July, more than 50 years after the release of her masterpiece To Kill a Mockingbird. Her second book is called Go Set a Watchman. The book features an adult Scout visiting her father Atticus 20 years after the original story takes place. Lee wrote Go Set a Watchman before To Kill a Mockingbird, but thought that the draft had been lost until recently, when it was unearthed by her friend and lawyer.
Go Set a Watchman will be published by Penguin on July 14, 2015. You can prepare by reading To Kill a Mockingbird (either on your own or with your book club), watching the movie, or reading Charles Shields' amazing biography of Lee, Mockingbird.
