The Scarlet Letter

Work:: The Scarlet Letter (S1211596365)

The classic exploration of sin and hypocrisy vividly re-imagined and stripped bare. In the seventeenth century Puritan colony of Boston, Massachusetts, Hester Prynne has been branded an adulteress and sentenced to wear the scarlet letter A. But she turns the mark of her shame into a badge of beauty and refuses all demands to name her lover, the father of her tear-away daughter, Pearl. Then Hester's husband arrives in town, determined to uncover the truth. Psychologically complex and rich in images The Scarlet Letter is regarded by m any as the greatest of all American novels.
