Lifetime admirers and new readers alike will be touched by this special visual edition. Enduring in vision, Harper Lee's timeless novel illuminates the complexities of human nature and the depths of the human heart with humour, unwavering honesty and a tender, nostalgic beauty. Scout, Jem, Boo Radley, Atticus Finch and the small town of Maycomb, Alabama, are all captured in vivid and moving illustrations by artist Fred Fordham. Now, this most beloved and acclaimed novel is reborn for a new age as a gorgeous graphic novel. 'Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.' A haunting portrait of race and class, innocence and injustice, hypocrisy and heroism, tradition and transformation in the Deep South of the 1930s, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird remains as important today as it was upon its initial publication in 1960, during the turbulent years of the Civil Rights movement. I also adapted the text for Aya Morton’s illustration of The Great Gatsby. My most recent projects were the adaptation and illustration of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. A beautifully crafted graphic novel adaptation of Harper Lee's beloved American classic, voted the #1 Great American Read 2018. I’m an artist and author of graphic novels.
