Presumably a lost transcript until last year, the release of Harper Lee's Go Set a Watchman is upon us.   It was written before To Kill a Mockingbird, but never published.  Alissa Elliott Community Business Development Manager of Barnes & Noble in Redlands, CA said, "I expect it to be one of the bestselling books of the year, if not the best.  It is an extraordinary historic event that cannot be matched."    news link
