Over het boek
To Kill a Mockingbird is a 2018 play based on the 1960 novel of the same name by Harper Lee, adapted for the stage by Aaron Sorkin. It opened on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre on December 13, 2018. The play opened in London's West End at the Gielgud Theatre in March 2022. The show follows the story of Atticus Finch, a lawyer in 1930s Alabama, as he defends Tom Robinson, a black man falsely accused of rape. Varying from the book, the play has Atticus as the protagonist, not his daughter Scout, allowing his character to change throughout the show. During development the show was involved in two legal disputes, the first with the Lee estate over the faithfulness of the play to the original book, and the second was due to exclusivity to the rights with productions using an earlier script by Christopher Sergel. During opening week, the production garnered more than $1.5 million in box office sales and reviews by publications such as the New York Times, LA Times and AMNY were positive but not without criticism.

De populairste recensies op Hardcover (met naamsvermelding van de auteurs).
“I never read nor watched the movie before. This was fresh eyes into this book, this was the first time in awhile I truly rage cried while reading. When the jury said guilty I was truly shocked. That broke my heart for that poor man. I know he’s a fictional character but I know someone from the not so far past has been in his shoes. I already have the sequel on my TBR list. ”
“I read it back in high school, I think in grade 10. The book is definitely a classic. It meets all the criteria for a school book. I found the plot a bit slow, at times predictable. It is not bad for a school-age book. The moral is simple and understandable for students. ”
“A bit slow to start with, but I do think this helps to build the ideas of the attitudes of those around her and the world she lives in. Once I got nearer the end though I could not put this book down. The end is slightly predictable but I don’t really think that’s the point, it’s a commentary and criticism to the unjust attitudes towards race. I thought the writing style really captured the mind of a child trying to understand the complexities of the world she is growing up in, and her relative innocence adds to the sense of injustice and irrationality of people’s view on race. ”
