kimshimsy 's review for:
The Scarlet Letter
by Nathaniel Hawthorne
I read this as a student 30 years ago and am reading it as a teacher (5 times) with my 11th grade American Literature classes. It's not a easy read; Hawthorne is wordy and his writing style is difficult to parse. My students have a hard time following the story because of these issues.
However, the story and it's themes are classic and adaptable to our current time, and students have understood those themes.
