Summary: Great for Book Club Discussion
Comment: Having grown up in the same era in the South myself I identified with so much of this book. I liked it because it causes the reader to think about great questions: What does it mean to be a man? Who needs the "Lesson Before Dying" the most?--the condemned man or his teacher? Can a man kneel and stand at the same time? (So the Preacher asks the Teacher.) I also think the way the teacher has to decide between "flight" and "standing fast" is at the heart of the story. It is so much more than merely a book about capital punishment.
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the must read novels of any college student
Comment: We had to read this book for a reading class and it touched my heart very deeply and showed me just how inhumane the death penalty is and the effects it has on not only the condemned but to the victims families. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has views on capital punishment and a must read for anyone.

Summary: C'mon, just read the book!
Comment: I read the "real book" in a day and I am not a very fast reader. It was great. Don't waste your money on the Cliff Notes. Read the real thing.
