A timeless classic

Jéssica Rosa

To Kill a Mockingbird, a controversial yet necessary read. This book explores and discusses a big variety of themes that are hugely impactful and should not be ignored. Some view this book as racist, since Harper Lee was in fact a white woman, for me it is a take on racism. And sadly, it remains timeless. Reading this book in 2023 made me sad to realise the small improvements we made as a society. Some sentences, some speech and some forms of thinking are still seen in today's world. “Cry about the hell white people give coloured folks, without even stopping to think that they’re people, too.” The language of the book is simple as it is narrated by a 6 year old girl, Scout, making the whole reading experience very neat and clear. We witness prejudice throughout the whole book and yet some characters portray the importance of moral education. ¿The whole book is about the coexistence of Good and Evil
