About the Author
Hawthorne, Nathaniel: - Nathaniel Hawthorne was born on the fourth of July in 1804 and went on to become one of the most influential American authors of all time. Much of his work draws on his Puritan ancestry and colonial history in psychological tales that explore gender, politics, religion, and community. He is best known for his short story collections, Twice Told Tales and Mosses from an Old Manse, and his novels The Scarlet Letter and The House of Seven Gables. Nathaniel Hawthorne's stories lend themselves to multiple interpretations, and thus provide a valuable introduction to literary analysis.White, Michelle M.: - Michelle M. White has always loved reading classic novels and history books while raising her kids and working as a book designer.
