The Scarlet Letter(III) 红字（英文版） (English Edition)

The Scarlet Letter rightly deserves its stature as the first great novel written by an American, is an absorbing tale about the temptations of power, wealth, and passion. It is a Wonderful and playful story．Jessup has been admired for his impeccable morals and high ideals—so what could explain his reckless affair with a woman of fading charms?The story of Hester Prynne—found out in adultery, pilloried by her Puritan community, and abandoned, in different ways, by both her partner in sin and her vengeance-seeking husband—possesses a reality heightened by Hawthorne’s sympathy and his unmixed devotion to his supposedly fallen but fundamentally innocent heroine. All is on the line for Jessup, who threatens to upset Glenville’s carefully calibrated social order. As each family member learns of the affair, the story reveals layer upon layer of abiding loyalties and shameless double-crossing.
