NP: 50 Years On, 'Mockingbird' Still Sings America's Song

[Mark Kohut]

I recently tried to reread To Kill a Mockingbird.  Am I about the only one you 
sorta know
who couldn't like it?.....

To me, Scout the narrator is seeing as an adult; she is not believeable even as 
a precocious
young 'un to me.........big FAIL......book 'works' in certain scenes, in the 
Capote character and
as an unfortunately heavy-handed moral tale.....good as that tale is, 
morally...........
