To Kill a Mockingbird- Chapter one
Chapter summary:
.
Chapter one opens when Scout Finch recalls the event that lead up to her brother Jim breaking his arm.
She starts by giving a brief back story of her family history.
Scout then talks about the "presents", she lives with her widowed father Atticus, brother Jim, and the house cook Calpurnia.
The story start in the summer time, when Scout and Jim run around near the house, Scout describes her neighborhoods including the Radley place.
The Radley legends focuses on Arthur Boo Radley, Boo fell into a wrong crowd then he was sent to a state school……
On night Mrs. Radley ran out screaming that Boo was trying to kill herself and Mr. Radley, she screamed that Boo stabbed Mr. Radley in the leg with a pair of scissors.
Boo then was locked in the courthouse basement, transited back to home after a certain time.
Over the years, stories of it grew more ridiculous.
Moving back, a boy called Dill came over and became friends with Scout and Jim, they then made plans to make Boo out of the house.
Overview:
Chapter one builds a framework introducing both the characters and the settings. Also, introducing the themes of the book, including the themes of class, race, and equality verses inequality.
Also, chapter one lines out that the Finch Family's position in the society has its roods in slavery.
