So have you heard already that there might be yet a
third Harper Lee novel lurking in that mysterious vault in Monroeville? Or possibly even
a fourth?? That vault seems to have the capacity of Hermione Granger's bottomless bag, doesn't it? But here's an exclusive scoop the media hasn't gotten hold of yet: the vault also contained an fully authenticated Harper Lee
graphic novel, carbon-dated to the year 1958, only a few years after the time when GO SET A WATCHMAN took place.
That's right, folks. Harper Lee wrote a graphic novel decades before the genre was thought to have been created. And not only that - although I cannot reveal my sources, I have been given permission to share here an exclusive excerpt from this extremely rare and valuable manuscript. Are you ready? Okay then, here goes:
Don't forget, folks - you saw it here first.
Hahahahahaha! Hmmmm.... The paper sems to be amazingly well preserved. But anyway, maybe cartoons and graphic novels will get more respect.

DeleteI'm not sure why this showed up in my inbox today, but it gave me a good laugh, which obviously it did the first tome I saw it too.
ReplyDeleteHow can my graphic novel compete with Harper Lee? I just don't know! Plus, I didn't remember that we had netflix back then.
