Buchbeschreibung

"An Old Woman's Tale (From: "The Doliver Romance and Other Pieces: Tales and Sketches")" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a ghost story from the beloved American author. Though a short tale, it has multiple layers that wind together to create a complex reading experience. From an old woman who spends her days kneeling by the fire to tell thousands of tales to a pair of young lovers who search for any moment when they can share in some tenderness alone, the book is part romance, part horror, written in Hawthorne's characteristic wit.
