To Kill a Mockingbird book cover redesign depicts alienation, confinement, and abuse to the African Americans in the 18th century. The hole in the body refers to the tree hole s cemented by Nathan Radley in the narrative, depicting the black figure as a tree of stability, tranquility and life while symbolizing notions of ‘wound’ and blockage of the outside world, signifying lies of adult to children that the tree is ‘diseased’. The hand of the figure extends to the back of the cover holding a mockingbird of growing camelias, a resemblance of innocence and purity.
