Irony: Marc

!Important! This post may have spoilers !
In To Kill a Mocking Bird irony is what helps to keep the book entering. For example, one of them was when Bob Ewell is called up at the trial. To call him up, the people of the court call him by his full name: Robert E. Lee Ewell. After a short time researching this name, I figured out that this character is based on Robert E. Lee, the confederate civil war general. This is ironic because they are both racists and both of them ultimately fail in the end.
