The Scarlet Letter (Dyslexia-Friendly Edition)

The canonical American masterpiece of sin, guilt, and revenge—now updated in dyslexia-friendly font!Nathaniel Hawthorne built one of the most incisive and devastating human dramas ever written out of a community and its outcasts: an ardent young woman, her cowardly lover, and her aging vengeful husband—these are the central characters in this stark drama of the conflict between passion and convention in the harsh world of seventeenth-century Boston. Tremendously moving and rich in psychological insight, this dramatic depiction of the struggle between mind and heart illuminates Hawthorne's concern with our Puritan past and its influence on American life. Hailed by Henry James as “the finest piece of imaginative writing yet put forth in the country,” Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter reaches deep into our nation's historical and moral roots, remaining one of literature's most evocative portraits of a love triangle.This special edition from Common Classics is printed in 11 point OpenDyslexic font.
