Yeah, a Pulitzer Prize winner that was published in 1960. Major cultural influence and it opened up people's eyes to racism here in 'Murica.

Plot involves a black man living in 1930s rural Alabama who is on trial for being accused of raping a white farmer's daughter. It's pretty deep stuff.

I'm currently reading it as part of my Humanities class at school, and I was thinking of possibly pulling some inspiration from it for when we begin writing the Miles Morales episodes in terms of themes of racism.
