The Scarlet Letter : "The Market-Place"

As the story progresses, I come to realize that Nathaniel Hawthorne uses very complex writings to get his points across the reader's mind. I personally struggle with some of the sentences, and sometime even a paragraph. Mr. Jefferson's warning of the book actually being the hardest book in English Honor 3, is actually becoming real. Not that I ever doubted Mr. Jefferson for his wise and thoughtful knowledge of literature and the English subject itself. Anyway, in chapter 2 of The Scarlet Letter, Hawthorne creates a very ideal way to introduce the main character Hester Prynne. He writes about how she is shun and isolate from the "moral society," but in fact it was the society that is corrupted and cruel. Everyone makes mistake once in a while throughout their life, and the mistake could be majorly wrong, but that doesn't mean that person should be punish through isolation and discrimination from their friends or loved ones. Furthermore, I really like how Hawthorne relates the evil, human-made guillotine with Pyrenne's trial. It creates a better understanding in the readers' minds of how human kind back in the Puritan era can be so quick in misunderstanding and judgmental, to the point where it is despicable and unfair for the good guys. I also really appreciate the facts that Hawthorne describes the plots, characters, settings, and etc. really deeply and imaginative. It helps lead my mind to imaginations and better comprehension of Hawthorne's complex, yet creative writings.
