I remember having a crush on Atticus Finch as a kid. I saw him as an example of a great man like I saw Captain von Trapp.

I heard that the novel Go Set a Watchman ruined Atticus, but I think that's because readers didn't expect Atticus to have faults.

That, and they published a manuscript that was an early draft.

This is why you don't publish prequels/sequels when the author is elderly or passed away.

Go Set a Watchman is a novel by Harper Lee written before the Pulitzer Prize–winning To Kill a Mockingbird, her first and only other published novel. Although initially promoted as a sequel by its publisher, it is now accepted as being a first draft of To Kill a Mockingbird with many passages being used again.

Originally published: July 14, 2015
Aww, and she died 8 months later.

Isn't it crazy how she wrote one story that's endured and made her an icon?

They said that they had taken advantage of her in her old age and that's how Go Set a Watchman got published.

And no follow up could have ever been as celebrated, so don't even bother.

A true talent.

So much chaos with J.K. Nice essay from Daniel, though.

Yea, he had a well written response.


I did see someone say JK should've kept silent, which I think can move into dangerous territory. Someone should be allowed to say an opinion that isn't necessarily popular or even correct. Freedom of speech should never be taken away.
