Summary
Written in the winter of 1849, The Scarlet Letter unfolds the story of Hester Prynne, a young woman branded as an adulteress in the harsh Puritan world of 17th-century New England. As Hester calls on her inner strength to transcend her shame, the scarlet letter ceases to be a stigma and finally becomes Hester's symbol of self-affirmation. This dramatic reading heightens the sense of lyric poetry that permeates every line of Nathaniel Hawthorne's great novel.

Historical Journey
The voice was incredible and you wrote sucked into the world. A short story that is finished with a good ending.

Miss the mark.
I just really didn’t like this. Although it was short it felt like a slog. Really didn’t feel the love.

NOT UNABRIDGED
Michael Learned's voice is both soothing and engaging. Sadly, despite what it says, this is not unabridged, many passages are skipped and so is the introduction.
