The famed reclusive author of To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee passed away this morning at age 89. She allowed the transcript rediscovered a couple of years back that became Go Set a Watchmen. The sequel to her only work. Rumors always swirled that she ghost authored Breakfast At Tiffany's by her famous neighbor and long-time close friend Truman Capote. Anyway, she has remained in a care facility the last few years and had become nearly blind. Despite that she has remained in good health otherwise. Her passing is sudden and a surprise. It seems to be of natural causes. I brought up To Kill A Mockingbird today in class when a conversation came of our top three favorite books. It is one those books that is a period piece yet is timeless and very well characterized for a teenager to appreciate or an adult of an era beyond its publishing.
