Short description:
Nathaniel Hawthornes Geschichte um ein ehebrecherisches Verhältnis spielt im harschen, puritanischen Boston des 17. Jahrhunderts: Nachdem die Ehebrecherin Hester Prynnes ein Kind aus einem illegitimen Verhältnis geboren hat, wird sie öffentlich geächtet. Als Zeichen des Makels muss sie von nun an ein scharlachrotes "A" auf ihrer Brust tragen... "The Scarlet Letter" gehört zu den bedeutendsten Werken der amerikanischen Literatur und brachte mit Hester Prynne deren erste echte Heldin hervor.
