Description
[Machine Translation] In 17th-century New England, a woman stands on the executioner's bench with an infant in her arms, the letter "A" on her chest. Hester Prynne, who has never revealed the name of the child's father, is watched over by a young parish priest and a mysterious doctor. When three souls, each with their own sins, meet, the secret of the scarlet letter is revealed. One of the greatest masterpieces of American literature. A woman who bears the guilt of adultery but lives resolutely, a pastor who is weakened by guilt, and a doctor who is obsessed with vengeance: this new translation infuses depth and truth into the psychology of the characters, which had tended to be obscured by the religious undertones.
