Guided by Voices: Watch Me Jumpstart

Harper Lee published her first novel in 1960, and recently announced the publication of her second (a previously written sequel), five and a half decades later, at the age of eighty-eight.  GBV were...er, slightly more prolific.  Not to compare the two as such.  Full disclosure: I've never read To Kill a Mockingbird.  I'm sure it's a very good book.  But does it rock ?
