| Sumario: | Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Marble Faun mingles fable with fact in a mysterious tale of American artists liberated from New England mores in Rome. In his introduction, Andrew Delbanco remarks that Hawthorne's novel is ultimately less about freedom than its costs. It is a book "that invites us to observe people in the grip of guilt, passion, or a na̐ve faith in God or art, and to watch them seek escape from their fears and doubts as their creed--whatever it is--fails them." --Publisher |
