Twice Told Tales

Twice-Told Tales, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s astonishing collection of short stories was initially published in two volumes; the first in 1837, and the second in 1842. In these thirty-nine stories, readers will encounter some of the author’s very best work; these are small masterpieces of allegory that measure the nature of human fallibility.

About the author

Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864) was an American writer whose work was aligned with the Romantic movement. Much of his output, primarily set in New England, was based on his anti-puritan views. He is a highly regarded writer of short stories, yet his best-known works are his novels, including The Scarlet Letter (1850), The House of Seven Gables (1851), and The Marble Faun (1860). Much of his work features complex and strong female characters and offers deep psychological insights into human morality and social constraints.
