Tanglewood Tales – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
This is a fun collection, the second of Hawthorne, Greek myths slightly rethought and retold for children. These are famous stories with a rather friendly perception. Antey has some friends who are called „pygmies”, but it seems that their height is about six inches. But they are going to avenge him after Hercules killed him, and Big X good-naturedly accepts the loss. Theseus still kills the Minotaur,...Data dostępności:

Septimius Felton – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Septimus Felton talks about the thirst for eternal life. Gothic, and sometimes irresistible, is the last book of this author. He changes the roles of the characters and spreads the story, which becomes mysterious and ambiguous. Inside the novel is a story about a bleeding shadow, like a collection of what is in the book.Data dostępności:

Fanshawe – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Hawthorne’s use of the language is magnificent, and the premise was interesting. We get acquainted with the love triangle between the heiress of Ellen, the immature student Edward and the painful scientist Fanshaw, and everything starts to go south after the villain enters. The pacing of this novel goes beyond the strange and not in a good way. After the first half of the novel, all expectations disappeared,...Data dostępności:

Twice-Told Tales – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Twice-Told Tales is a two-volume collection of thirty-nine Hawthorne works, consisting of short works of art, allegories, and narrative essays. The greatest gift a reader receives when reading all these stories, including sometimes too superficial vignettes and too obvious allegories, is a close acquaintance with young Hawthorne: thoughtful, reflective, with a deep interest in colonial and revolutionary...Data dostępności:

The Blithedale Romance – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
A group of people is a powerful mixture of competing ambitions, and its idealism finds little satisfaction in agriculture. Instead of changing the world, Blithedale community members individually follow selfish paths that ultimately lead to tragedy. Hawthorne’s tale simultaneously mourns and saturates a rural idyll, not unlike the history of America in the 19th century as a whole.Data dostępności:

Doctor Grimshawe’s Secret – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
The novel „Doctor Grimshawe’s Secret”, in which a specific eerie coloring is attached to one particular house, still existing in Salem and adjacent to the old cemetery on Charter Street.

A person’s desire for an immortal existence, an attempt to satisfy which would be stated in various ways: first, through the selfish old sensualist, Colonel Dabni, who greedily grabbed the mysterious elixir and took his draft so that he died on the spot; then, through the plain old Grandir, longing to live for Pansy; and, perhaps, through Pansy herself,...Data dostępności:

Mosses from an Old Manse and Other Stories – ebook
Nathaniel Hawthorne
An early collection of fairy tales. Some of the subtle, almost subconscious problems that Hawthorne faces with female sexuality. Like the stories, these plays often do not follow the traditional dramatic arcs that can disappoint, but Hawthorne is always more interested in character than plot, so you just need to abandon any expectations of high drama and sometimes enjoy the amazing revelations that...Data dostępności:
