Nathaniel Hawthorne was a key American novelist and short story writer of the Romantic period. 'The Christmas Banquet', originally published in 1844, is a classic example of Hawthorne's preoccupation with the darker side of human nature. Many of the earliest ghost stories, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Autorenporträt
Nathaniel Hawthorne was born on the fourth of July in 1804 and went on to become one of the most influential American authors of all time. Much of his work draws on his Puritan ancestry and colonial history in psychological tales that explore gender, politics, religion, and community. He is best known for his short story collections, "Twice Told Tales" and "Mosses from an Old Manse," and his novels The Scarlet Letter and The House of Seven Gables. Nathaniel Hawthorne's stories lend themselves to multiple interpretations, and thus provide a valuable introduction to literary analysis.
