Harper Lee’s long-awaited sequel to “To Kill a Mockingbird” delivers a poignant exploration of racial tensions in the 1950s South. Jean Louise “Scout” Finch returns home to Maycomb, Alabama, grappling with disillusionment as she confronts her father’s flaws. Lee’s prose is as evocative as ever, painting a vivid picture of a changing world. I found myself deeply moved by Scout’s journey, her internal struggles resonating with my own experiences of growing up and seeing childhood heroes in a new light.
Prejudice, a dirty word, and faith, a clean one, have something in common: they both begin where reason ends.
