“To Kill A Mockingbird is often criticized from The Left due to its use of the n-word & its supposed “White Saviorhood.” (It’s a great book about the importance of courage & principle, especially in fighting racism. Also, Chicago is a disaster, please do your job.) https://t.co/ScVPNc95ft” (from X)
Harper Lee
Harper Lee
Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

“I like that DUNE took its time, focused on both world-building & story-building instead of rushing thru the whole book in one film, brought space & the future to life w/ care in ways akin to Blade Runner, 2001, Interstellar, etc., & did its best to capture the themes of the book.” (from X)
