  5. Student Sample for Discussion • To Kill a Mockingbird • Maycomb, is a town in southern Alabama and in 1933-1935 during The Depression years, it is a mostly rural place where people have very little money and segregation is still very obvious. Harper Lee reflects through the eyes of Scout, “Maycombwas an old town, but it was tired when I first knew it.” (6) Maycomb’swhite farmers were the most likely to own land but black people would live off wages working in fields. Scout remembers most people “produced everything required to sustain life except ice, wheat flour, and articles of clothing, supplied by river-boats from mobile.”(4) The town was founded near a river which allowed people send and receive goods. Maycombhas little entertainment to offer children, so they had to create their own fun. One day walking home, Jem looks in a tree near the Finch house and finds something interesting, “I found carvings, they…. resemble us.” (52). This curiosity pulls Jem and Scout into some exploration. The town is a regular place with average people who most likely represent any small town in the south.

  6. Paragraph Setting for TKAMB • What is Maycomb County and what kind of people live there? Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird takes place in Maycomb County, Alabama and it’s in the 1930’s. The narrator, Scout Finch, lives there with her father, Atticus Finch, her cook, Calpurnia, and her brother, Jeremy Finch, who is also called Jem. Scout is six going on seven and describes the town as tired and old, “Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town…” (9). She also describes how hot it is in the summers, “….a black dog suffered on a summer’s day….” (10). A lady named Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose lives two doors to the north of the Finchs’. Her nephew, Charles Baker Harris (a.k.a Dill), visits her every summer and Scout and Jem became friends with him. Three doors to the north of the Finch’s is the Radleys’ home. Rumors are always spreading throughout the town about them. Nathan Radley got in trouble when he was young and he hasn’t been seen for 15 years after he locked a police officer in an outhouse. Someone even said once that when they were walking by the house, they saw Nathan cutting up newspapers and when his dad came into the room, Nathan stabbed him in the leg with the scissors. The town also has nowhere to go. Scout says, “There was no hurry….there was nowhere to go, nothing to buy…” (10) During the school year, Dill leaves to go back to his home and Scout and Jem start school. Scout’s teacher, Miss Caroline Fisher, just moved to Maycomb County and doesn’t know a lot of people there while everyone else knows everyone. Maycomb County is poor, dull, and isolated and the people that live there are peculiar.
