Hawthorne's tale of inner and outer morality. Who can cast the first stone, when we all wear some letter on our chest, visible or not.

Left on the shelf to find a new reader for 2016 Banned Books Week!

Welcome to Bookcrossing, where Books roam freely! I hope you enjoy the book, and leave a journal entry so I can see where the book ended up. You can remain anonymous if you'd like, or join and follow the book's travels throughout the world. The site is free, secure, and non-spamming. Take a look around, and then go read!

P.S. If the book is too good to read and release, that's okay, you can keep it, just let me know that it's found a good home!

I was pleasantly surprised to find this in a free library! Somehow I missed reading it in high school, perhaps it was banned as it was in the late 1970's?
