NATHANIEL HAWTHORNEA 19th century novelist and short story writer, Hawthorne is considered to be a master of the allegorical and symbolic tale. A key figure in the development of American literature, Hawthorne is one of our greatest fiction writers. His writings are marked by subtle imagination, curious power of analysis, and exquisite purity of diction, with exceptional developments of character. Hawthorne was fond of exploring secret crypts of emotion and his shorter stories are remarkable for originality and suggestiveness.DW
