Harper Lee Agrees to Ebook Version of To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee has agreed for To Kill a Mockingbird to be made available as an ebook and digital audiobook, filling one of the biggest gaps in the digital library.
In a rare public statement released through her publisher, HarperCollins, Lee said: "I'm still old-fashioned. I love dusty old books and libraries. I am amazed and humbled that Mockingbird has survived this long. This is Mockingbird for a new generation."
The announcement came almost a year after she sued her former literary agent Samuel Pinkus to regain rights to her novel.
