There is so much great stuff in this Billfold piece but I have point out the fact that Hawthorne was a massive misogynist (even for his time) and he definitely didn’t intend for us to sympathize with Hester. (But we can if we want to! Intentional Fallacy and all that stuff. But oh man, he really hated women and his women characters).
