mschuyler64 's review for:
The Scarlet Letter
by Nathaniel Hawthorne
This book was, in my opinion, very mediocre; I feel fairly neutrally towards it. It progressed fairly slowly, and nothing much occurred, but it did offer interesting insight into the two different ways main characters dealt with their sins. One suffered by exposing their mistakes to the world and being harshly shamed for those mistakes, and the other by keeping them secret and wishing he had the courage to divulge them. Some things were never fully explained which leaves me feeling somewhat cheated and unsatisfied, but overall it was a decent novel. I do somewhat fail to see why it is such a lasting and prominent classic, but I'm sure it will become clear to me eventually.
