We will be reading Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter through mid-October. Set in 17th-century Puritan Boston, the novel follows Hester Prynne as she faces public shame for her private sins. What begins as a town scandal quickly unfolds into a tense psychological thriller driven by hidden motives, overwhelming guilt, and a bitter quest for revenge. Under the watchful eye of a deeply judgmental community, the story transforms into a haunting examination of public morality versus inner torment.
