Synopsis:
Set in the small Southern town of Maycomb, Alabama, during the Depression, To Kill a Mockingbird follows three years in the life of 8-year-old Scout Finch, her brother, Jem, and their father, Atticus--three years punctuated by the arrest and eventual trial of a young black man accused of raping a white woman. Though her story explores big themes, Harper Lee chooses to tell it through the eyes of a child. The result is a tough and tender novel of race, class, justice, and the pain of growing up.

My Thoughts :
I liked this book a lot, it expresses a lot of racial / social problems happening in the world. It's actually a simple story with not much going on but a short climax nearing the end, but I enjoyed it altogether.

This is one of my favourite books of all times! I think I must have read it at least 5 times since the first time when I was in 6th grade...
