A Mockinbird Settles
Episode description
One of the nice things about our listeners is that they share their views and experiences with us. So it is that, after we last covered the lawsuit brought by “To Kill a Mockingbird” legend Harper Lee against a museum in her south Alabama hometown, both Donna and Peter have changed their views on the case. Thank you, Debriefists!
Well, that suit has been settled now – and a very good thing, too.
And while we’re speaking of past shows, here is the link Peter mentioned to our show featuring author Sherry Jones, whose trilas and tribulations with her book “The Jewel of Medina” we covered very extensively. Sadly, extremist never sleeps, and here is a similar case, this time featuring Penguin and Wendy Doniger's book “The Hindus”.
