Set in 17th century Boston, the narrative follows Hester Prynne, a woman ostracized for adultery, forced to wear a scarlet letter "A" as punishment. Raising her daughter Pearl alone, Hester grapples with the consequences of her actions in a society governed by strict puritanical morals. The novel delves into themes of sin, guilt, and societal control, offering a poignant critique of early colonial life. Through Hester's struggles, Hawthorne crafts a powerful exploration of morality and the human condition in a repressive environment.
