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 exuberant humour the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the thirties. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much. To Kill a Mockingbird is a coming-of-age story, an anti-racist novel, a historical drama of the Great Depression and a sublime example of the Southern writing tradition. (20030909)

12月11号那天临八点了最终决定去奢侈一回。12号断断续续看了几章。13号昨天Neuschwanstein带了一路欲罢不能。今天14号看到25/31章。很久很久没有一口气看一本小说笑笑哭哭了。不是懒，就是没碰到。真不容易。也很开心。欢迎我去年12月13号维也纳/布拉迪斯拉发借Catcher in the Rye告别小说今年同一时间同一出行状态再回归。一个天生热爱故事的八卦人远离故事一年整竟然也存活至今可歌可泣。热烈欢迎再度寻获一条底线。你知道嘛，不把木桩抽走你是不知道自己站在它上面。【结尾嫌戏剧化一点，被拉回小说的感觉】

before we can live with other folks, we’ve got to live with ourselves. The one thing that doesn’t abide our majority rule is a person’s conscience. Real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It’s when you know you’re licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what.

"‘Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.’"

有时候就是因为太经典，我就有些许怕读，读了Paul theraux的Deep south以后，想着读下知更鸟做个对比，终于读完了，心里有点五味杂陈，黑白有时候总是不那么分明，但好在总有些良知在.

又一个儿童视角，为了打底先看了改编电影。缩写有点多，没有上本顺畅。
