The town of Maycomb is described in great detail in To Kill a Mockingbird, so much so that the reader gets the sense that Maycomb is more than a setting; it takes on the weight and important of the character. Write an expository/informative essay on To kill A Mockingbird in which you describe Maycomb and explain its significance with respect to the event and meaning of novel. Be sure to die beneath the surface: it's easy to say that Maycomb is Southern town and that certain social dynamics - sch as racism - shape the characters and their circumstances, but there are also more subtle characteristic about the town that exert influence over the novel's outcome. Finally, consider whether Maycomb is changed by the conclusion. It shapes people and events, but it is also shaped by its inhabitants and their actions

    To Kill a Mocking Bird novel by Harper Lee

    Explanation:

    The most certain thing about Maycomb is that it does not change. One of the characters confirms that in Chapter One, when he describes the town as a place where nothing happens, or changes, and there is nowhere to go.

    Moving along the novel until the end, we can confirm that. We trully expect some change after Tom Robinson's trial, however, everything remains the same. People are still racist and blind. They care about africans, but close their eyes to the injustices in Maycomb.

    An innocent man was convicted and they consider themselves a great Christian community. It is unbearable. Maycomb is a despeacable, obnoxious place with no room for changes.

    It really represents the southern american society. That is the reason why this novel is timeless. Until we have prejudice in America and around the world, this novel will be extremely relevant.
