"To Kill A Mockingbird" Author Releases New Book

RE: "To Kill A Mockingbird" Author Releases New Book
Here is my initial response to the news that Atticus Finch is now a racist:

THE FUCK

To be fair, from what I understand "Go Set a Watchman" was originally written before TKAM was, and, from what I understand, Harper Lee based Atticus on her father, racial opinions and all; apparently, he went through a change of heart about race between the writing of GSAW and TKAM. I hope to Hell Harper Lee made some modifications to GSAW in the intervening 50 years, because if she didn't, this will create serious plot and character holes between the two books.

Also, here's an interesting thought: Doug "The Nostalgia Critic" Walker once made a countdown on his Top 10 favourite characters in all fiction. #1 was a tie between Atticus Finch and Marge Gunderson from Fargo. I wonder how he's taken the news.
