Look for The Land of Sweet Forever, a posthumous collection of newly discovered short stories and previously published essays and magazine pieces by Harper Lee, coming October 21, 2025.
Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read
Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred
One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

Det har blivit femtiotal i småstaden Maycomb i Alabama. Den nu vuxna Jean Louise Finch – eller Scout som hon kallas – återvänder hem från New York för att besöka sin far, Atticus. Scout blir tvungen att brottas med såväl personliga som politiska frågor medan hon försöker förstå sin fars syn på samhället, liksom sina egna känslor inför platsen där hon växte upp.
Ställ ut en väktare är Harper Lees första roman på över femtio år och den andra någonsin som ges ut. Den skrevs innan Dödssynden (To Kill a Mockingbird), men utspelar sig kronologiskt sett efter händelserna i debutboken. Lee trodde själv att manuset hade gått förlorat, tills det återfanns förra året. Ställ ut en väktare är en tankeväckande roman skriven i en turbulent tid, som kastar nytt ljus över en av den moderna litteraturens klassiker.

Go Set a Watchman is such an important book, perhaps the most important novel on race to come out of the white South in decades." New York Times
A landmark novel by Harper Lee, set two decades after her beloved Pulitzer Prizewinning masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird.
Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise FinchScoutreturns home to Maycomb, Alabama from New York City to visit her aging father, Atticus. Set against the backdrop of the civil rights tensions and political turmoil that were transforming the South, Jean Louises homecoming turns bittersweet when she learns disturbing truths about her close-knit family, the town, and the people dearest to her. Memories from her childhood flood back, and her values and assumptions are thrown into doubt. Featuring many of the iconic characters from To Kill a Mockingbird, Go Set a Watchman perfectly captures a young woman, and a world, in painful yet necessary transition out of the illusions of the pasta journey that can only be guided by ones own conscience.
Written in the mid-1950s, Go Set a Watchman imparts a fuller, richer understanding and appreciation of the late Harper Lee. Here is an unforgettable novel of wisdom, humanity, passion, humor, and effortless precisiona profoundly affecting work of art that is both wonderfully evocative of another era and relevant to our own times. It not only confirms the enduring brilliance of To Kill a Mockingbird, but also serves as its essential companion, adding depth, context, and new meaning to an American classic.

Lilla nioåriga Scout växer upp i amerikanska Södern i en loj småstadsidyll, när ohyggliga och dramatiska händelser vänder upp och ner på livet och hennes föreställningar. En ung svart man blir anklagad för våldtäkt på en vit kvinna, och hans chans att få en rättvis rättegång är försvinnande liten. En vit advokat tar sig an försvaret, men hatet och indignationen i det lilla samhället växer som en lavin.Inför Scouts oskuldsfulla ögon omstörtas den sömniga lilla staden och hon blir seende: hennes berättelse blir till en anklagelse, som ingen av oss undslipper. När Harper Lees Dödssynden (To Kill a Mockingbird) kom ut 1960 i USA var det en händelse som skapade rubriker från kust till kust. Hennes berättelse om rasism och fördomsfullhet är, dessvärre, aktuell på många håll i världen fortfarande idag.

Det är 30-tal i en småstad i den amerikanska Södern, mitt under den stora depressionen. En ung svart man, Tom Robinson, anklagas för våldtäkt på en vit kvinna, och samhället vänder sig mot honom. Maycomb må framstå som en sömnig idyll, men under ytan är staden djupt splittrad av segregation och klassklyftor.
Åttaåriga Scout är dotter till försvarsadvokaten som tilldelas fallet. Hatet som kokar i staden sipprar oundvikligen in i barnens värld. För Scout, som inte kan låta bli att blanda sig i de vuxnas angelägenheter, blir rättegången mot Tom Robinson det första mötet med samhällets orättvisor.
”Att döda en härmtrast” är en av 1900-talets mest älskade och omdiskuterade romaner. Den hör till de amerikanska klassikerna och finner ständigt nya läsare.

From one of America’s most beloved authors, a posthumous collection of newly discovered short stories and previously published essays and magazine pieces, offering a fresh perspective on the remarkable literary mind of Harper Lee.
Harper Lee remains a landmark figure in the American canon – thanks to Scout, Jem, Atticus, and the other indelible characters in her Pulitzer-winning debut, To Kill a Mockingbird; as well as for the darker, late-’50s version of small-town Alabama that emerged in Go Set a Watchman, her only other novel, published in 2015 after its rediscovery. Less remembered, until now, however, is Harper Lee the dogged young writer, who crafted stories in hopes of magazine publication; Lee the lively New Yorker, Alabamian, and friend to Truman Capote; and the Lee who peppered the pages of McCall’s and Vogue with thoughtful essays in the latter part of the twentieth century.
The Land of Sweet Forever combines Lee’s early short fiction and later nonfiction in a volume offering an unprecedented look at the development of her inimitable voice. Covering territory from the Alabama schoolyards of Lee’s youth to the luncheonettes and movie houses of midcentury Manhattan, The Land of Sweet Forever invites still-vital conversations about politics, equality, travel, love, fiction, art, the American South, and what it means to lead an engaged and creative life.
This collection comes with an introduction by Casey Cep, Harper Lee’s appointed biographer, which provides illuminating background for our reading of these stories and connects them both to Lee’s life and to her two novels.
