"Matar un ruiseñor (título original en inglés: To Kill a Mockingbird) es una novela de 1960 de la escritora estadounidense Harper Lee. Su publicación tuvo un éxito instantáneo: ganó el premio Pulitzer y pasó a convertirse en un clásico de la literatura estadounidense. La novela está inspirada en las observaciones de la autora sobre su familia y sus vecinos, así como en un incidente ocurrido cerca de su ciudad en 1936, cuando tenía diez años de edad."~~~Wikipedia
" Set in the racially charged environment of the Deep South, the story unfolds through the eyes of young Scout Finch. Her innocent perspective on the complexities of race, justice, and morality offers a poignant critique of prejudice and human integrity.
The book’s enduring relevance is underscored by its exploration of themes that continue to resonate today, making it a staple in classrooms and a favorite among readers worldwide. With its unforgettable characters and moral lessons, it is no wonder that this novel is often hailed as a masterpiece of American literature.
