Harper Lee’s 'To Kill a Mockingbird' elucidates themes of racial injustice and moral growth through the eyes of Scout Finch, who reflects on her childhood in the racially divided town of Maycomb, Alabama. The narrative captures the children's adventures, their encounters with prejudice and courage, especially through the character of their father, Atticus Finch, who defends an innocent Black man, Tom Robinson, against false accusations. The first fifteen chapters lay a rich foundation of character development, illustrating the complexities of human nature against the backdrop of societal expectations.
