[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, it's a first novel/manuscript. I've read enough over the years to understand why they weren't published initially. [/quote] To me, one publisher's view on the initial attempt doesn't mean that it's a bad novel. [b]The editor who asked her to change the book may have done so for many reasons, not necessarily the quality.[/b] And even if it isn't polished, I am intrigued enough by how Lee changed the initial idea into TKAM to read it. Harper Lee did a good enough job with TKAM for me to want to judge for myself the quality of the book, rather than depend on what some editor in the 1950s thought of it. I'm planning to read it over the next week. We'll see if it was worth the time or not![/quote] My god, what other reason could a publisher possibly have? And you have the evidence - the final book TKAMB was a success and continues to be one.[/quote]
