An interesting set of essays about the writing/inspiration/and story structure of [b:The Scarlet Letter|12296|The Scarlet Letter|Nathaniel Hawthorne|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1327879100s/12296.jpg|4925227]. Fascinating to read, but would have been better if I'd found the original book more interesting...
