    Summary:

    "Originally written in the mid-1950s, "Go Set a Watchman" was the novel Harper Lee first submitted to her publishers before "To Kill a Mockingbird". Assumed to have been lost, the manuscript was discovered in late 2014. "Go Set a Watchman" features many of the characters from "To Kill a Mockingbird" some twenty years later. Returning home to Maycomb to visit her father, Jean Louise Finch - Scout - struggles with issues both personal and political, involving Atticus, society, and the small Alabama town that shaped her. Exploring how the characters from 'To Kill a Mockingbird ' are adjusting to the turbulent events transforming mid-1950s America, 'Go Set a Watchman ' casts a fascinating new light on Harper Lee's enduring classic. Moving, funny and compelling, it stands as a magnificent novel in its own right."--Publisher.
