While not a great literary read, it does offer insightful peeks into the private life of Harper Lee. While she disliked Truman Capote: her childhood friend\'s flamboyant ways. I wonder if her travelling to New York to \'write\' was a euphemism. New York allowed her to be anonymous.
She keeps most of her personal life secret and never marries. This reader hopes that some of the manuscripts \'written\' in New York surfaces. She was an incredible writer to become so prominent at such a young age.
Even if some of her work does not match the level of To Kill a Mockingbird, it would be nice to be able to peek into her mind and read her thoughts.
