《红字》美国浪漫主义作家纳撒尼尔·霍桑长篇代表作，其隐晦的主题思想、超常的表现形式及巧妙的文学艺术手法使其一直成为文学界研究的对象。《红字》不仅涉及当时一个严肃而敏感的婚外情话题，而且还触及到了有争议和激进的女性主义思想，所以，撰写这样的小说是对当时基督教价值判断的颠覆和挑战。

There could not be a more perfect work of the American imagination than The Scarlet Letter.
— D. H. Lawrence
“It is beautiful, admirable, extraordinary; it has in the highest degree that merit which I have spoken of as the mark of Hawthorne’s best things—an indefinable purity and lightness of conception…One can often return to it; it supports familiarity and has the inexhaustible charm and mystery of great works of art.”
— Henry James
The Scarlet Letter is a work of historical fiction by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne, published in 1850, and was an instant best-seller. It is also one of the first mass-produced books in America.
Set in Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony during the years 1642 to 1649, the novel tells the story of Hester Prynne who conceives a daughter through an affair and then struggles to create a new life of repentance and dignity. The book explores themes of legalism, sin, and guilt.
The Scarlet Letter was one of the first mass-produced books in America. It was popular when first published and is considered a classic work today. It inspired numerous film, television, and stage adaptations. Critics have described it as a masterwork and novelist D. H. Lawrence called it a “perfect work of the American imagination”.
