Reader comments
Morality has become a discipline, kindness has become a contradiction, and the current inner anxiety of the times has become the culprit of destroying health. When human desires are eliminated, natural principles will disappear. As time goes by, strong winds caress the vast sea, leaving only piles of tombs rising from the earth.
The plot of this book is very attractive, and it shows the complexity of human nature through the description of Hester's story. The writing style is concise and powerful, and the writing style is vivid, making people feel the atmosphere of that era. The symbolism in the story is also very clever. For example, the meaning of the scarlet letter A changes with the development of the plot, which makes people think deeply. Overall, this is a good book worth reading.
