Similarities Of Harper Lee

’s Life To Her Nove “to Essay, Research Paper


To Kill A Mockingbird


By Harper Lee


What


similarities did Harper Lee?s life have with Scouts life?


In Harper Lee?s


story she writes about many things that happened to


her as a child. In the


story Harper is telling the story in the position scout is


in. Lee is actually


telling The story that she lived as a child. Her real life had


various similarities


to Scouts life. In this essay I will explain the similarities


of Harper Lee?s


life to Scouts life.


As Harper lee was growing up she lived in a sleepy


town named


Monroeville, Alabama. In this town she grew up hearing crazy stories


and


rumors which the townspeople would make up. As a child she also heard


a


lot of stories about ghosts, tall tales, and rumors. This reflects in her


story


with all the strange stories about Boo (Arthur) Radley.


At seven


years old she started writing and reading. Even before they


had taught her


these skills in school. She was an intellectual prodigy. She


was bored in


school and was much more intelligent than all the other kids. As


you remember


in the story Scout had learned to read and write way before

all


the other


kids and Scout also was bored in school.


In real life Harper Lee was a tomboy.


In the story Scot was also a


Tomboy, she hadn?t even worn a dress until her


first day of school. Also


Harper?s best friend was here cousin Truman Capote.


Who is basically what


Dill (Charles Baker Harris) was in the book. Harper


was a child who for


some reason used rather adult words when she talked. If


you notice in the


book the vocabulary that Scout is using is complicated for


a child of merely


eight years old. She was also known to knock a boy down


and start fighting


with him. In the book Scout fought with a boy in two or


three occasions.


As a child Harper Lee and her cousin witnessed a KKK meeting.


For


Harper it was an experience that showed the evil in her community. This


experience


showed up in her book, where such comments like ?Niger Lover?


were displayed


by the characters in her book.


In this essay I have displayed examples of


how The book ?To Kill a


Mockingbird? compares to Harper Lee?s own childhood


experiences. I also


explained where some of the characters in the book compare


to people in her


real life.
