O ovoj audio knjizi
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
In the gray light of a seventeenth-century Boston morning, a young woman is led from the prison door onto the wooden scaffold of the marketplace. She carries an infant in her arms and wears a scarlet letter A embroidered on her breast with gold thread, a letter she will wear for the rest of her life. Hester Prynne refuses to name the father, accepting years of public shame in silence while her absent husband, thought lost at sea, reappears under an assumed name and begins to search for the man who wronged him.
Set among the timber meeting-houses and conscience-haunted streets of Puritan New England, Nathaniel Hawthorne's 1850 masterwork is a slow-burning study of guilt, hypocrisy, and quiet endurance. At its center stands Hester, condemned but never broken, and the minister Arthur Dimmesdale, revered by his congregation and secretly consumed by the sin he cannot confess. What unfolds is neither a simple tale of punishment nor of revenge, but a moral tragedy in which mercy and judgment are weighed against one another until the final scaffold.
This unabridged recording preserves Hawthorne's measured, symbol-laden prose, giving listeners the full force of a novel that has shaped American literature for more than a century.
