In "The Scarlet Letter," Nathaniel Hawthorne tells the story of Hester Prynne, a young woman in 17th-century Puritan New England who bears an illegitimate child, Pearl, after an affair with the Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale. Publicly shamed, she is forced to wear a scarlet "A" for adultery. As Hester navigates a life of ostracism, Dimmesdale grapples with his hidden guilt, and Hester's estranged husband, Roger Chillingworth, seeks revenge. The novel explores themes of sin, redemption, and the nature of morality, ultimately questioning the rigid structures of society and the complexity of personal identity.
