The novel is told by Scout, a six year old girl who lives with her father and brother. Overall, the town is described as being overall united and ideal. Everyone in town works together and respects each other, which creates a feeling of community and unity that one would expect of this type of suburban town. However, the trial of Tom Robinson divides the town. Townsfolk begin to turn on each other as the trial comes to the knowledge of the town. Different people have different opinions about the trial.
