The Scarlet Letter (Legend Classics)

The literary landmark, chronicling Hester Prynne's affair and the punishment she receives from the hostile Puritan Colony in which she resides. One of the first mass-produced books in America, The Scarlet Letter is a chilling exploration of shame, social stigma, and society's unquenchable thirst for revenge. A testament to the novels staying power, it is revered and referenced across the artistic spectrum; from film, literature, and television to music, the opera, and the theatre; from D. H. Lawrence and Henry James to Childish Gambino and Taylor Swift.
