Harper Lee: The Sadness of a Sequel (Atlantic, via Yahoo)
the rest at link above---
Harper Lee, today, finds herself in a place she traditionally has not enjoyed occupying: the news. That's because of the surprise announcement that To Kill a Mockingbird will have its long-awaited sequel: Go Set a Watchman, about the adventures of a grown-up Scout as she returns to Maycomb, Alabama to visit Atticus. That a novel more than 60 years in the making would finally be published was the result, Lee said in a statement delivered through her publisher, Penguin Random House, of some crazy serendipity: The books long-lost manuscript was discovered by her lawyer, the statement says, in a secure location where it had been affixed to an original typescript of To Kill a Mockingbird.
