From AudioFile In the early days of Puritan Boston Hester Prynne braves the stigma of adultery by wearing the embroidered scarlet "A" on her clothing. Hill's reading captures the story's pathos and gives the reader empathy for the characters while clarifying Hawthorne's views. Hill distinctly portrays each character and reads the narration clearly and swiftly. The pace conveys a sense of urgency and breathlessness. After hearing this novel， readers will understand why it continues to be a classic. P.A.J. (c)AudioFile， Portland， Maine --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.
