Harper Lee has written only one book in her 83 years, but it was enough for a lifetime — To Kill a Mockingbird is arguably one of the all-time great American novels. Lee has led a fascinating life as far out of sight as possible, but now Kerry Madden, the L.A.-based author of several children’s novels, has written a biography of Lee that’s both in-depth and middle-school-reader friendly. Madden will be talking about Harper Lee and signing books on Sunday at Vroman’s, and it’s sure to be worthwhile for Lee fans of all ages.

Sunday, May 24
