Nathaniel Hawthorne

Autor

Nathaniel Hawthorne (Salem, Massachusetts, 1804-Plymouth, New Hampshire, 1864) fue autor de novelas como The Scarlet Letter (1850), The House of the Seven Gables (1851) y The Blithedale Romance (1852). Son sus relatos, sin embargo, originalmente publicados en diarios y revistas, y posteriormente reunidos en antologías y colecciones—como Cuentos contados dos veces (1837; Acantilado, 2007) o Musgos de una vieja casa parroquial (1846; Acantilado, 2009)—, los que más han conectado con el lector contemporáneo. Acantilado ha publicado en 2012 su Libro de maravillas.
