The Scarlet Letter: (Special Illustrated Edition) - 570

“She had not known the weight until she felt the freedom.” The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a classic American novel set in 17th-century Puritan New England. The story follows Hester Prynne, a woman who is publicly shamed and ostracized for bearing an illegitimate child. Forced to wear a scarlet letter "A" (for "adulteress") on her chest, Hester endures scorn and isolation while striving to maintain her dignity and raise her daughter, Pearl. As the narrative unfolds, the novel explores themes of sin, guilt, hypocrisy, and redemption. The identity of Pearl’s father, a revered minister named Arthur Dimmesdale, becomes central to the emotional and moral complexity of the story, especially as he grapples with his hidden guilt. Meanwhile, Hester’s estranged husband, Roger Chillingworth, seeks revenge in secret. With its richly symbolic imagery, psychological depth, and moral questions, The Scarlet Letter is a powerful examination of the human condition and the consequences of societal judgment.
