Reese Witherspoon to Narrate Harper Lees Go Set a Watchman
Not much is known about Harper Lee's second novel, Go Set a Watchman, the project that will mark Lee's return to fiction after 55 years. But according to The Guardian, the book already has one reader Reese Witherspoon, who will record the audio version of Lee's follow-up to To Kill a Mockingbird. Witherspoon told USA Today that, "as a Southerner, it is an honor and a privilege to give voice to the Southern characters who inspired by childhood love of reading, Scout and Atticus Finch." The Oscar-winning star added that she is "eager for readers to be transported to a pivotal time in American history in the manner that only Lee's gorgeous prose can deliver."
