Summary

"The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a powerful exploration of sin, guilt, and redemption set in Puritan New England. The novel follows Hester Prynne, who, after bearing an illegitimate child, is condemned to wear a scarlet "A" for adultery. As she navigates the scorn of her community, Hester's quiet dignity and resilience stand in stark contrast to the secret guilt of her lover, Reverend Dimmesdale. Hawthorne's masterful narrative delves into themes of hypocrisy, justice, and personal transformation.
