I’ve always admired and respected Harper Lee for being the best literary one hit wonder I’ve ever come across. There is something so noble and restrained about doing something extremely well, and then stopping. I always felt as though she put every ounce of every word she had to say into To Kill a Mockingbird, and then realized she had said enough, and was finished. Like pushing one’s plate away when one is full, even if it still holds bits of cake.
Good or bad, we will all be tempted to read the prequel, just because we are book gluttons.
