Mosses From An Old Manse - Passages from a Relinquished Work

from The Nathaniel Hawthorne Library · host Nathaniel Hawthorne

In which a young man, nurtured under the austere care of a stern parson yet inclined towards a life of wandering storytelling, sets forth from his native village under a veil of mist and misgiving to seek his fortune and freedom. Amid melancholy farewells and curious companionship with a shy pilgrim, he encounters the varied humours of public performance and the persistent shadow of his guardian’s rigid expectations.
