To Kill a Mockingbird Collector's Edition

“A first novel of such rare excellence that it will no doubt make a great many readers slow down to relish more fully its simple distinction… . A novel of strong contemporary national significance.” - Chicago Tribune“All of the tactile brilliance and none of the precocity generally supposed to be standard swamp-warfare issues for Southern writers… . Novelist Lee’s prose has an edge that cuts through cant, and she teaches the reader an astonishing number of useful truths about little girls and about Southern life.” - Time“That rare literary phenomenon, a Southern novel with no mildew on its magnolia leaves. Funny, happy and written with unspectacular precision, To Kill a Mockingbird is about conscience–how it is instilled in two children, Scout and Jem Finch; how it operates in their father, Atticus, a lawyer appointed to defend a Negro on a rape charge, and how conscience grows in their small Alabama town.” - Vogue
