About this series
Nathaniel Hawthorne's gripping psychological drama concerns the Pyncheon family, a dynasty founded on pious theft, who live for generations under a dead man's curse until their house is finally exorcised by love. Hawthorne, by birth and education, was instilled with the Puritan belief in America's limitless promise. Yet - in part because of blemishes on his own family history - he also saw the darker side of the young nation. Like his twentieth-century heirs William Faulkner and F. Scott Fitzgerald, Hawthorne peered behind propriety's façade and exposed the true human condition.

Author
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Nathaniel Hawthorne (Salem, Massachusetts, 1804-Plymouth, 1864) escribió alegorías, de las que, sorprendentemente, llegaría a arrepentirse. Fue amigo de Herman Melville, quien le dedicó Moby Dick. Fue un recluso voluntario, por una especie de malentendido con las puertas. Terminó sus días como Hölderlin, escribiendo encerrado en una torre. Poe, que no era de halago fácil, dijo de él: «Lo considero uno de los pocos hombres de genio indiscutible que ha llegado a dar nuestro país». Para el editor Duyckinck era como si ese genio, «sin deudas respecto al pasado o a contemporáneos extranjeros», hubiera caído del cielo.
