Harper Lee Letters Up For Auction

“You ask me where Maycomb County is, where the Landing is—the only answer I can give you is that Maycomb County is in my heart and the Landing is in my imagination,” wrote author Harper Lee in a letter penned two months after her landmark novel To Kill a Mockingbird was released. “If, in ‘To Kill a Mockingbird,’ I persuaded you that those places are real, that means I have succeeded in my profession, which is writing fiction,” she continues in the letter.
