Letter To Harper Lee
Dear Harper Lee,
I just wanted to tell you how amazing of a writer I think you are. It was amazing to see how you can use all these literary devices and put them all together. One of the literary devices you used wonderfully was foreshadowing. You kind of showed and hinted to what was coming. Another thing was your wonderful use of symbolism. Some of the amazing symbols you used were Miss. Maudie’s house burning down and Tim Johnson coming into town. These were just the start of showing all the bad things that were coming. That was one of the best things to see being used. It just all came together perfectly and flowed wonderfully.
Aside from your wonderful use of the literary devices, the book was amazing! Even though the book was a great book it was kind of slow at first. However, that didn’t last for long. Things started heating up when Jem and Scout find little trinket type things in the Radley’s yard. Arthur Radley really seemed like a scary and creepy character. Boo intrigued me a lot I wanted to know what was up with him and why he never comes out. When Boo finally came out he saved the Jem and Scout’s life. I think he just wants friends but his family doesn’t want him to have friends. I loved that Arthur came to the rescue for the children. I just wish Jem were awake to meet Arthur and know that he saved his life. Arthur wouldn’t have had to save the children’s lives if the trial wouldn’t have happened. I couldn’t believe that someone would just blame an African American for anything. To me personally I think that Tom Robinson was innocent. I was in awe when I found out that Tom Robinson was shot and killed after he tried escaping from jail. He shouldn’t have been in jail anyway. Bob Ewell should’ve been in jail for beating his daughter and not Tom Robinson. In the end your book kept me intrigued.
The only bad thing about the book is that it just ended. I had so many questions that were left unanswered. We never found out what happened with Dill. The whole Arthur Radley thing was kind of weird to we don’t know if Jem ever got to meet him or if they stayed friends. If I would have written the book I would have had at least one more chapter so I don’t leave all the readers hanging.
To Kill A Mockingbird gives an insight in how life was like back in the 1930’s. Life was beyond rough for African American’s in the 1930’s. The book shows that only a couple people want to help the African American community.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. You are one amazing writer and I wish you would’ve wrote more books or a sequel to this one.
Sincerely,
Ashley Shilling
