Two children build a snow-sister in their garden and she comes to life; a boy grows up watching a face that nature carved into a mountainside; a lime-burner returns from searching the world for the Unpardonable Sin. Hawthorne dedicates the volume to his college friend Horatio Bridge and fills it out with Puritan sketches, allegories and early tales.
Essential for anyone who has finished Twice-Told Tales and Mosses from an Old Manse and wants more of Hawthorne’s short fiction. Download the free EPUB.
