The Scarlet Letter the House with Seven Gables
About This Novel
"The Scarlet Letter" is Hawthorne's first novel, which describes a romantic love story that took place in colonial New England more than two hundred years ago. The novel has a unique style with profound themes and artistic techniques such as symbolism and metaphor. It caused a huge sensation when it was published in 1850 and is still an immortal classic today. "The House of the Seven Gables" is a novel describing the decline and fall of a large family. The big house that connects the whole story has multiple symbolic meanings. These two works convey the author's views on many issues such as American history, society, politics, religion, art, and morality in a tortuous and mysterious way. They are profound in thought, exquisite in art, and exude lasting charm. They are well-deserved models of American literature.
