Or more appropriately, Mockingbird is actually a prequel, because as the Associated Press reports, Lee wrote Watchman first, before being convinced to instead write about Scout as a young girl.
Also: It’s a sequel to Mockingbird, featuring a twentysomething Scout Finch as a young woman returning home from New York. In a statement, the publisher Harper (an imprint of HarperCollins, not related to Harper Lee) announced today that another Lee book, Go Set a Watchman, will be released July 14. The book has sold over 30 million copies since being published in 1960, but Lee has never released any other work. After Romeo & Juliet, Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird may be the most common staple of high school English class.
