After Hester Prynne confesses to the crime of adultery, she dons the scarlet letter A that marks her as a sinner. But also guilty in this story are Reverend Dimmesdale, the minister who sinfully fathered Hester's child, and Chillingworth, Hester's estranged husband who is bent on revenge. A tale of morality, religion, and redemption, THE SCARLET LETTER is one of Nathaniel Hawthorne's most brilliant and controversial works.
