The collection Young Goodman Brown and Other Short Stories offers seven tales created by Hawthorne; each is different from the rest, making this anthology a varied and holistic collection for any library. Students who enjoyed Hawthorne’s most famous novel The Scarlet Letter will be impressed with tales such as Young Goodman Brown, The Birthmark, and The Artist of the Beautiful. The author’s ability to connect Romanticism, theology, and morality has impressed readers since the 1800s, and audiences today will find the same excitement and beauty that was celebrated by 19th century Americans. This edition includes a biographical afterword.
