I didn't study it at school but I've read the book. We went to see it on stage at the Bradford Alhambra last year too.. both were fantastic. It's got so many themes running throughout and it really does make you think about a lot of issues in society today; not only racism, but the role that children play too.

Yeah i totally agree with you there mate. I never saw the play but i wouldn't mind seeing it, only book i've ever read all the way through

I started reading the book once and I got really bored and didn't really understand it so I didn't read the rest :P

i studied it for gcse, i didn't rly like it but i don't like a lot of american lit. especially from that era ;;

I'm quite a big fan of American Literature; perhaps I find the words easier to understand than the likes of the Bronte sisters over here! :P Most prominently in the past couple of years, I've read The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird, Catcher in the Rye and Grapes of Wrath. The latter is another fantastic book - probably one of my favourites of all time. The ending is just... shocking.

Well as the only book i've read i liked it, i did read abit of inspector calls but didn't finish it! lol

I had that for my leaving cert :P I'm not a fan of books but i really like this

Used it for gcse and it was one of the films in my American South module in Uni last year, which I had to incorporate into my essay. It's one of my favourites.

Seems to be a bit of hit then, so many people know about this book lol
