Download or read book Scarlet Letter: The Manga Edition written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2009-04-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scarlet Letter: The Manga Edition will be a hit with both manga readers and in the classroom. A four-page essay at the beginning ties the novel and manga together; the rest of the book is taken up with the manga novel itself. So, there should be strong carryover between those people who are manga readers and those teachers/students who want a new and unique way to read the plays. Our The Scarlet Letter manga is true to the original context of the play--we don't take Hester and Pearl and set them in a setting/time that's not relevant to Hawthorne's original and intended time/setting. You could say that ours is "true" to the novel.
