"To Kill a Mockingbird" Harper Lee

In the Harper Lee novel To Kill A Mockingbird, there are many characters that are very different than they seem. Throughout the story Scout and Jem find out who these people really are and what they are truly like. There are many subplots in this story that all go on at once, but they are all connected in that Scout and Jem get to know people better. At the beginning of the novel the plot that surfaces the most is the subject of Boo Radley. After that is a smaller but no less important plot involving a devilish old woman, Mrs. Dubose. Throughout the book one of the most important characters is Atticus, Scout and Jem's father, who while helping them try to see things from others' perspectives was himself seen very differently by Scout and Jem by the end of the novel. In the end, Scout and Jem were able to see things from other people's perspectives, totally changing their view of many people including Mrs. Dubose, Boo Radley, and their own father, Atticus.…
