The novel “To Kill a Mocking Bird “written By Harper Lee was made into a film widely considered to be one of the greatest ever made‚ directed by Robert Mulligan.

The Great Gatsby is by far one of the best classical novels ever written. Fitzgerald sure knew what he was doing with this one. The book is still one of the top sellers and has been made into two movies so far.

This technique is a good way for people to understand the poem a little more vs reading the old English manuscript. Beowulf is
