There are many themes in the book To Kill a Mockingbird. Deceptive appearances are one of them and that is what I will prove. People like‚ Dolphus Raymond‚ Lafayette Dubose‚ and Boo Radley. These characters may be portrayed as drunks‚ mean old spirited‚ or psycho‚ but that may not be what they truly are.
