Descrição da editora
Hawthorne's works belong to romanticism or, more specifically, dark romanticism,[87] cautionary tales that suggest that guilt, sin, and evil are the most inherent natural qualities of humanity.
His four major romances were written between 1850 and 1860: The Scarlet Letter (1850), The House of the Seven Gables (1851), The Blithedale Romance (1852) and The Marble Faun (1860).

Little biographical interest attaches to Hawthorne's first work, beyond the fact that Mr. Longfellow found in the descriptions and general atmosphere of the book a decided suggestion of the situation of Bowdoin College, at Brunswick, Maine, and the life there at the time when he and Hawthorne were both undergraduates of that institution.
The Scarlet Letter (1850)
By common consent the greatest novel that has been written this side of the Atlantic. It is, as were all Hawthorne's works, a study of the soul of man. There is little incident. What takes place is mostly upon the arena of the heart.
The Blithedale Romance (1852)
Set in a utopian community, founded upon anti-capitalist ideals.
The Marble Faun or The Romance of Monte Beni, Complete (1860)
The classic novel about the effect of a murder upon the people involved in the crime.
A Wonder Book for Girls & Boys (1851)
The author has long been of opinion that many of the classical myths were capable of being rendered into very capital reading for children. In the little volume here offered to the public, he has worked up half a dozen of them, with this end in view.
