内容説明
"Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."
A lawyer's advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel—a black man charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with rich humor and unswerving honesty the irrationality of adult attitudes toward race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence, and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina and quiet heroism of one man's struggle for justice—but the weight of history will only tolerate so much.
One of the best-loved classics of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has earned many dis-tinctions since its original publication in 1960. It has won the Pulitzer Prize, been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, and been made into an enormously popular movie. It was also named the best novel of the twentieth century by librarians across the country (Library Journal). HarperCollins is proud to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the book's publication with this special hardcover edition.

: Israel A. Tekhelet Lakewood, Colorado United States - 2010年9月5日To Kill a Mockingbird: 50th Anniversary
What can I say? This book is one of the all time great classics of the modern era. It parallels the movie with a bit more information as the account of one child girl's sense of justice before the civil rights of blacks became to be here in the USA. I enjoyed this very well written novel immensely.
: Skip Rohde Asheville, NC - 2010年9月5日Still Applicable Today
I just re-read "To Kill A Mockingbird" for the first time in many years. It's just as applicable today as it was then - not just for African Americans, but applicable to the Islamic community, Hispanic, or any other minority.
: Laurel-Rain Snow "Rain" Fresno, California - 2010年9月5日LEARNING EMPATHY, COMPASSION, AND THE FACT OF INJUSTICE....
From this story's beginning, we walk right into 1930s Southern life, visualizing the characters in this small town through the eyes of one of its children, Scout Finch, who narrates this wonderful tale.
With her older brother Jem and their summer friend Dill, these children explore the small world within two blocks of their home, imagining and fantasizing and sometimes obsessing over a mysterious man named Albert (Boo) Radley. The stories about him reveal a troubled young man contained in his home by his punitive father. But long after the father's death, Boo stays out of sight.
Meanwhile, the town begins stirring over a controversial happening--Atticus Finch, a lawyer and the father of Jem and Scout has taken on the case of defending a black man against charges that he raped a white woman. Never mind that there is no physical evidence, nor are the "witnesses" even slightly credible. Finch pokes holes in the prosecution's case, and Jem, Scout, and Dill, watching from the balcony, feel sure of an acquittal.
What these children learn from this case and the subsequent aftermath is that life is often unjust. But their father tries to help them see that understanding another person can only happen when you "walk in his shoes."
Empathy, integrity, compassion, and yes, life's injustices--all of these are brought home to these children growing up in a Southern small town during the 30s. When a surprising rescuer saves Jem and Scout from the evil of one bitter man, they also learn that things are not always the way they seem.
The ending of To Kill a Mockingbird (slipcased edition) was just a beginning, in a sense, as Scout, our narrator, comes to understand what Atticus has been saying all along...most people are "nice," too, "when you finally see them."

Got the book for my wife who had never read it nor seen the movie. She hardly put it down until she finished it. This is a timeless, moving tale of values and virtues that everyone would enjoy and come away with greater expections from their character or code of ethics.
