Here in one volume are all five of Nathaniel Hawthorne's world famous novels. Written in a richly suggestive style that seems remarkably contemporary, they are permeated by America's and Hawthorne's own history. The House of the Seven Gables moves across 150 years from an ancestral crime condoned by the Puritan theocracy to a new beginning in the bustling and democratic Jacksonian era. Hawthorne's masterpiece, The Scarlet Letter, is a dramatic allegory of the social consequences of adultery and the subversive force of personal desire in a community of laws. The Blithedale Romance explores the perils, which Hawthone knew firsthand, of living in a utopian community, and the inextricability of political, personal, and sexual desires. Fanshawe is an engrossing apprentice work which Hawthorne published anonymously and later sought to suppress. The Marble Faun, his last finished novel, involves mystery, murder, and romance among American artists in Rome.
