The Scarlet Letter
From unwed motherhood to sex and adultery, many of the moral issues and stigmas of Puritan society are still being dealt with today. In The Scarlet Letter, Hester Prynne is forced to wear a large, red "A" on her chest when she is found guilty of adultery and refuses to name the father of her illegitimate child. This book explores the conflicts between private truth and public appearances, and the choice between sin and salvation.
