»Ein psychologisches Meisterwerk über Rassentrennung, Zivilcourage und über das Erwachsenwerden« (Der Sonntag) – heute aktueller denn je.Jedes Jahr reist Jean-Louise Finch aus dem mondänen, aufgeklärten New York zurück in ihre Heimatstadt Maycomb im Süden der USA, um den Sommer bei ihrer Familie zu verbringen. Doch diesmal ist etwas anders als sonst: In dem beschaulichen Städtchen breiten sich Rassenunruhen aus, und Jean-Louise wird fassungslos Zeugin, wie ihr Vater Atticus in der ersten Reihe steht. Die bewegende Geschichte einer Tochter, die sich von ihrem geliebten Vater emanzipieren muss, um zu sich selbst zu finden; ein Zeitdokument tiefgreifender gesellschaftlicher Umbrüche und ein literarischer Fund, der seinesgleichen sucht – und viel zum Verständnis der heutigen USA beiträgt.

Die Graphic Novel basiert auf dem gleichnamigen Roman von Harper Lee, der 1960 veröffentlicht wurde und heute als moderner Klassiker der amerikanischen Literatur gilt. Die Themen des Romans sind nach wie vor relevant, insbesondere das Heranwachsen von Kindern in einer fiktiven US-amerikanischen Kleinstadt in den 1930er Jahren, die von den Auswirkungen der Wirtschaftskrise nach dem Schwarzen Donnerstag 1929 geprägt ist. Ein zentrales Thema ist die Rassendiskriminierung: Der Vater der Hauptfiguren verteidigt einen Farbigen, der wegen Vergewaltigung angeklagt ist. Dies führt zu Anfeindungen in der Stadt und belastet die Familie erheblich. Die Form der Graphic Novel ermöglicht es jungen Lesern, sich schnell mit den Protagonisten zu identifizieren und intensiv mit deren Charakteren auseinanderzusetzen. Wichtige Themen wie Werteerziehung, moralisches Handeln, Gerechtigkeit und der Kampf gegen Vorurteile sowie Rassismus werden behandelt. Darüber hinaus bietet die Graphic Novel zahlreiche fächerübergreifende Ansätze für den Unterricht. Die besondere Kunstform eröffnet nicht nur inhaltliche, sondern auch künstlerische Möglichkeiten zur Auseinandersetzung mit dem Werk.

"Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird." A lawyer's advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel—a black man charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with rich humor and unswerving honesty the irrationality of adult attitudes toward race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence, and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina and quiet heroism of one man's struggle for justice—but the weight of history will only tolerate so much. One of the best-loved classics of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has earned many dis-tinctions since its original publication in 1960. It has won the Pulitzer Prize, been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, and been made into an enormously popular movie. It was also named the best novel of the twentieth century by librarians across the country (Library Journal).

In una cittadina del "profondo" Sud degli Stati Uniti l'onesto avvocato Atticus Finch è incaricato della difesa d'ufficio di un "negro" accusato di violenza carnale; riuscirà a dimostrarne l'innocenza, ma l'uomo sarà ugualmente condannato a morte. La vicenda, che è solo l'episodio centrale del romanzo, è raccontata dalla piccola Scout, la figlia di Atticus, un Huckleberry in gonnella, che scandalizza le signore con un linguaggio non proprio ortodosso, testimone e protagonista di fatti che nella loro atrocità e violenza non riescono mai a essere più grandi di lei. Nel suo raccontare lieve e veloce, ironico e pietoso, rivive il mondo dell'infanzia che è un po' di tutti noi, con i suoi miti, le sue emozioni, le sue scoperte, in pagine di grande rigore stilistico e condotte con bravura eccezionale.
