Go Set a Watchman

Серия: "-"

From Harper Lee comes a landmark new novel set two decades after her beloved Pulitzer Prize–winning masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird. Maycomb, Alabama. Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise Finch— "Scout"—returns home from New York City to visit her aging father, Atticus. Set against the backdrop of the civil rights tensions and political turmoil that were transforming the South, Jean Louise's homecoming turns bittersweet when she learns disturbing truths about her close-knit family, the town, and the people dearest to her. Memories from her childhood flood back, and her values and assumptions are thrown into doubt. Featuring many of the iconic characters from To Kill a Mockingbird, Go Set a Watchman perfectly captures a young woman, and a world, in painful yet necessary transition out of the illusions of the past—a journey that can only be guided by one's own conscience. Written in the mid-1950s, Go Set a Watchman imparts a fuller, richer understanding and appreciation of Harper Lee. Here is an unforgettable novel of wisdom, humanity, passion, humor, and effortless precision—a profoundly affecting work of art that is both wonderfully evocative of another era and relevant to our own times. It not only confirms the enduring brilliance of To Kill a Mockingbird, but also serves as its essential companion, adding depth, context, and new meaning to an American classic.

Lee Charles Philip Harper (born October 30 1971 in Chelsea, England) is an English football goalkeeper, currently playing for Kettering Town. He signed for Kettering on 16 August 2007 after being released by Milton Keynes Dons.

Career

Harper started his career at non-league Sittingbourne, before being signed by Arsenal in 1994. He was third-choice keeper at the club, behind Vince Bartram and David Seaman, and only made one first-team appearance for the Highbury side, in a 2-0 Premiership win over Southampton on March 15 1997. In the summer of 1997 he moved to Queens Park Rangers, and in four seasons made 118 league appearances. He moved to Walsall in 2001 after Rangers were relegated to the Second Division, but made only three appearances in his single season there. He moved to Northampton Town in 2002 and became first-choice goalkeeper there, recording over 150 league appearances as of 2006.

In the 2006-07 season, he moved on loan to Milton Keynes Dons, where he helped to repair the team's poor defending record, with a significant reduction in goals conceded. This successful loan spell resulted in Harper signing a permanent deal in the January 2007 transfer window. He was released four months later. He signed for Kettering Town in August 2007. He went on loan from Northhampton Town and played regularly, before the experienced Ademole Bankole took his place in the line ups.Fact|date=February 2008
