By the time you get to the next stop, you've convinced yourself that everything will be fine. But you soon start to panic, because there aren't two children waiting for you on the platform. There's only one. Immediately, within the first few lines I was thrown into the deep end and the anxiety didn't give way until the very end. Andrea, has so cleverly managed the tension in a way so that it went from a slow simmer which crept it's way into my chest, to that bubbling, bursting sensation where I realised I'd been holding my breath and it was time to breathe. She was furious, and when she was furious Calpurnia's gram¬mar became erratic. When in tranquillity, her grammar was as good as anybody's in Maycomb. Atticus said Calpurnia had more education than most coloured folks. To get rid of the - er, cooties. You see, Burris, the other children might catch them, and you wouldn't want that, would you ?'

Los secundarios tampoco tienen desperdicio. El trío de padres que critican en las puertas del colegio a la entrada y salida son para echarles de comer aparte. En más de un momento pensé que si la Sarah se mordiera sin querer la lengua, se envenenaba fijo. Corrosiva es poco. Adeline, la suegra de Jenny es otra que también destila veneno por todos sus poros.

Jem suddenly grinned at him. 'Come on home to dinner with us, Walter,' he said. 'We'd be glad to have you.'

El inicio es algo lento para mi gusto, pero entiendo que es la presentación de los personajes y su desarrollo emocional en la trama.
