mockingbird

Harper Lee, the author of To Kill a Mockingbird, died last month at 89. Since her death, her executor first requested, and received, permission to keep her will private resulting in secrecy regarding the value of estate and her beneficiaries.  Last week her executor notified the publisher of the mass market (re:  less expensive) version of To Kill a Mockingbird that it would no longer allow the publication of that version of Lee’s beloved novel.
