The House of the Seven Gables

About this book

The House of the Seven Gables is a Gothic novel written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, first published in 1851. The novel is set in a gloomy New England mansion with a mysterious and dark past. It explores themes of guilt, retribution, and atonement, intertwined with a family curse that haunts the Pyncheon family. Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864) was an American novelist and short story writer, best known for his works that explore themes of sin, guilt, and morality, often set against the backdrop of Puritan New England. Born in Salem, Massachusetts, his early experiences in this historically rich and often dark town greatly influenced his writing, especially its focus on ancestral guilt and the moral complexity of human nature.
