    Brilliant first draft that is still relevant 60-plus years later

    This is basically an unedited first draft - a time capsule from the 1950s - but it is still better than 95% of novels published recently. The characters argue over topics we’re sadly still seething over today. The characters are vivid and well developed - Atticus is far more complex and stubborn in his ways, though he seems to be seeking common ground with the community, trying to figure out how best to appeal to them. Contrary to over-hyped reviews, the real racists are the boyfriend and the uncle. There are chunks of text the author likely would have reworked/rewritten/omitted, given the chance at a younger age Overall, it is a highly pleasurable reading experience, thought provoking and beautifully written.

    Harper Lee's Heirs Probably Wanted More Money

    This was obviously a re-worked first draft of To Kill a Mockingbird. There were many rumors that she was having memory problems and people were taking advantage of her in her later years. Harper Lee said several different times that she would never publish another novel after Mockingbird. This one was written in the mid 50s, and she re-worked it into Mockingbird, published in 1960; possibly after suggestions from from her pal, Truman Capote. Both books have semi-autobiographical elements, and several passages of Watchman are verbatim from Mockingbird; the big differences being the time-frame and the personality of Atticus in Mockingbird. If you are a big fan of Mockingbird, and can get a copy of Watchman cheaply like I did(just over six dollars for a hardback, including shipping from ...

  • The Watchman vs The Mockingbird

    It's very hard to believe that this book was written before To Kill a Mockingbird. The racial issues in this book are on a first person account, while Go Set a Watchman is on the society of the time as a whole. Scout is having a much harder time dealing with the old South's white vs black attitude than she did dealing with Atticus's defense of a black man accused of a crime he didn't commit. In some aspects Mockingbird presents a more telling version. Although I enjoyed them both, I had a harder time liking the characters in Watchman. I am glad it didn't come out first. If it had I don't think Mockingbird would have been as successful. Perhaps that is why the author held Watchman back for so long.

  • Go Set a Watchman

    After having read and loved To Kill a Mockingbird, I don't think this comes anywhere near the quality level of Mockingbird. The depth of characters in Mockingbird is not reflected in this book. While some readers, I have heard, are upset that their image of Atticus is sullied by this book, the book was so different from her first that I see almost no connection between them, despite being set in the same place and with the same characters. While Atticus is now shown to have some attitudes very common to that setting and time in this book, the story was so fragmented with jumps in time and assumptions on Scout's part that I couldn't even finish it.

  • Don’t bother !

    Entire book is about the southern culture I grew up in, the daughter comes home from living in NYC and sees it hasn’t changed , her family tries to drag her back in. The last chapter brings Atticus , rarely mentioned all along ) to the fore and tramples what we knew of him in the past . I believe either this book was not written by the author or was changed deliberately by others to sully a main character who served as a means to show us some decency in the world at that time . I think it smells a rat . Waste of paper , ink, money … And not really a credible novel .
