delighted when my dear friend
and lawyer Tonja Carter discov-
ered it. After much thought and
hesitation, I shared it with a
handful of people I trust and
was pleased to hear that they
considered it worthy of publica-
tion. I am humbled and amazed
that this will now be published
after all these years.”
Financial terms were not dis-
closed. The deal was negotiated
between Carter and the head of
Harper’s parent company, Mi-
chael Morrison of HarperCol-
lins Publishers. Watchman will
be published in the United
Kingdom by William Heine-
mann, an imprint of Penguin
Random House.
According to publisher
Harper, Carter came upon the
manuscript at a “secure location
where it had been affixed to an
original typescript of To Kill a
Mockingbird”
The new book is set in Lee’s
famed Maycomb, Alabama,
during the mid-1950s, 20 years
after To Kill a Mockingbird
and roughly contemporaneous
with the time that Lee was writ-
ing the story. The civil rights
movement was taking hold in
her home state. The Supreme
Court had ruled that segregated
schools were unconstitutional.
“Scout [Jean Louise Finch]
has returned to Maycomb from
New York to visit her father, At-
ticus,” the publisher’s announce-
ment reads. “She is forced to
grapple with issues both person-
al and political as she tries to un-
derstand her father’s attitude to-
ward society, and her own feel-
ings about the place where she
was bom and spent her child-
hood.”

nounced Tuesday that Go Set a
Watchman, a novel the Pulitzer
Prize-winning author complet-
ed in the 1950s and put aside,
will be released July 14. Redis-
covered last fall, Go Set a
Watchman is essentially a se-
quel to To Kill a Mockingbird,
although it was finished earlier.
Reactions ranged from eu-
phoria (Oprah Winfrey issued a
statement saying, “I couldn’t be
happier if my name was Scout”)
to skepticism that the new book
will be of the same quality as
Mockingbird.

was a “beginning author” when
she wrote Watchman.
The 304-page book will be
Lee’s second, and her first new
work in print in more than 50
years, among the longest gaps in
history for a major writer.
“In the mid-1950s, I complet-
ed a novel called Go Set a
Watchman, the 88-year-old
Lee said in a statement issued by
Harper. “It features the charac-
ter known as Scout as an adult
woman, and I thought it a pretty
decent effort. My editor, who
was taken by the flashbacks to
Scout’s childhood, persuaded
me to write a novel [what be-
came To Kill a Mockingbird]
from the point of view of the
young Scout.
“I was a first-time writer, so I
did as I was told. I hadn’t real-
ized it [the original book] had
survived, so was surprised and
