This graphic novel retells the classic story of a woman judged and sentenced by her Puritan community to wear a red letter 'A' on her chest as a sign of adultery. The adaptation keeps much of Hawthorne's original language, so the reader will experience the flavor of his writing with illustrations helping to flesh out the story.
