Dear Mr.Hawthorne, I am glad to write this letter to you, please don’t mind my rudene.I write the letter to you just because you are my favorite American writer, and I only want to show my fondne of you.I have read much of you works, and I also know much information about you.Because I am so fond of you, I want to know about all the things that happened to you in your life.I know you are an American novelist and shout-story writer in the 19th century, you were born in Salem, Maachusetts, you are one of the great masters of American fiction.In your novels and tales, you are always penetrating exploration of moral and spiritual conflicts.Besides, I know that you have four novels which are considered as the most significant ones, they are Moes from an Old Manse(1864), The Scarlet Letter(1850), The House of Seven Gables(1851)and The Blithedale Romance(1852).Among them, I think The Scarlet Letter is the most popular one, and it is also the book I like best.And I gue you are greatly influenced by Puritanism, Transcendentalism and Mysticism, because when I read you woks I have a strong feeling about that.Another purpose to write to you is that I want to ask you something about The Scarlet Letter, because after I have written it, I have some confusion and a few questions.So I hope that you can help me to understand the book deeply.Now I don’t know whether you know or not that your novel The Scarlet Letter has been made into a film.When I know the news, I went to see it as soon as poible, but I was a little disappointed, because the film is a bit far from the regional story, but in general, it is still a perfect one.In the end of your story Arthur was dead, Hester and Pearl went away, but quite different from yours, in the film, Arthur was alive, and the family went away together and lived a happy life.Maybe most readers like a happy ending, so the director did this.I am impreed by the beginning of The Scarlet Letter very much.”On a summer morning in Boston, in the early days of the Maachusetts Colony, a throng of curious people had gathered outside the jail Prison Lane…Condemned to wear on the breast of her gown the scarlet letter, the A which stood for adultere… ” In your description, Hester wears a letter A for her adultere, so it is easy for me to know that the letter A means Adultery.A general saying about the letter A, some scholars also think the letter A have anther three meaning—Angel, Ability and Adam.Angel is Hester’s character, she is beautiful, kind-hearted, just like an angel;ability presents the power that human beings have;as to Adam, as we all know, she made a mistake together with Eve, so they got punished from the God, in this story, the same as Adam, Hester also made such a mistake that she had do get punished.These all sounds reasonable, but no one has ever heard your answer about the meaning of letter A.So I hope that in your letter you can tell me what is your opinion about the meaning of the letter A.And here I have some opinions about the meaning of the letter A.I gue maybe you can give me some advice to me about my analysis.First, abundant, because since Hester has made a mistake, she has been abundant by other people and put into the jail.The second meaning is apple, just like the word Adam, Adam made his mistake by eating the apple in the intelligent tree, so apple also means a wrong thing, and Hester also did a wrong thing.The third meaning I thought is American, in many people’s eyes, America is a country that full of creation spirit;Americans are of a powerful nation which is full of new spirit.And in your story, Hester is a woman who was very different from others, I think she is like the American people, she has the spirit that Americans have.Those are my understanding about the letter A, I don’t know whether they are right or wrong, so Mr.Hawthorne, please give your comment on my views, I will appreciate you very much.So please write me a letter as soon as poible, I’m looking forward to hearing from you.Yours sincerely,***
