In the Shadow of the Rosary Tree

Book Description in the Shadow of the Rosary Tree The only thing that scares me in this country is this: One day, the state will become such a monster that the smallest individuals will be crushed underfoot and living will no longer have any value. The only and unique thing about America in this tired world of ours is that here a person can go as far as his brain can take him, or even to hell if he wants; But this won't last long either.” Harper Lee presented her readers with a slice of racism in the American South with her Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird, which left its mark on the 1960s. With In the Shadow of the Rosary Tree, which appeared almost half a century later, we see the truth of the matter; It hit us like a slap in the face with the fact that there is a difference between fairness and justice, truth and truth. Scout, the child hero through whose eyes we watch the story in To Kill a Mockingbird, aka Jean Louise Finch, is now a young woman. Years later, Jean Louise, who returns home from New York to visit her old father Atticus, encounters a surprise she never expected: Everything she has believed in and trusted since her childhood is destroyed by Atticus' betrayal. Accompanied by her character Scout, full of humor and passion, Harper Lee creates a portrait of racism, the hypocritical nature of humanity, and the disappointment-filled structure of reality, which never disappears, on the contrary, grows stronger.
