    About this ebook

    Nathaniel Hawthorne was born at Salem, Mass., on July 4th, 1804. He led a shy and rather somber life with little encouragement to write, yet not wholly uncongenial in view of his temperament. His life is reflected in his Twice-Told Tales and other short stories, the product of his first literary period. In these stories, his understanding of men and women was displayed with great subtlety.

    He was forty-six years old when The Scarlet Letter appeared. It is considered his best work, and is a good demonstration of his unique and imaginative mind. In 1850, the year The Scarlet Letter appeared, he began The House of the Seven Gables, a later romance or prose-tragedy of the Puritan-America as he knew it missing art and the joy of life.

    Author

    Joseph Cowley

    Henry James, born April 15, 1843, is regarded as one of the key literary figures of the 19th century, writing mainly narrative fiction. His style of writing, often verbose and indirect, especially in his later years, can make him difficult to read. Often, imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue, and narrators who were not necessarily reliable, brought depth and interest to his fiction. The Aspern Papers, The Portrait of a Lady (1881), and The Golden Bowl (1916) are also available in this series, Classics Condensed by Cowley.
