The Scarlet Letter
Nathaniel Hawthorne
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter follows Hester Prynne, who is publicly shamed in Puritan Boston for bearing an illegitimate child and forced to wear a red “A” as a sign of adultery. Refusing to name the father, she lives on the town’s edge with her daughter Pearl, enduring scorn while quietly building a life of skill and charity. The child’s father is Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, whose hidden guilt corrodes him from within as Hester’s estranged husband, Roger Chillingworth, arrives under a false name and dedicates himself to exposing and tormenting the sinner he suspects. Over years, Hester’s steadfastness transforms the symbol’s meaning in the community, while Dimmesdale’s weakness and Chillingworth’s vengeance spiral toward collapse. The story culminates in Dimmesdale’s public confession and death, Chillingworth’s withering after losing his purpose, and Hester’s eventual return to the colony, where the scarlet letter becomes a complex emblem of sin, identity, and hard-won moral insight.
