Something Missing
Revisado: 12-04-06
"This audiobook does not include Hawthorne's essay The Customs House," says the blurb. That "essay" is not a separate work, but considered the prologue to the novel. It describes how the narrator, working in the customs house 200 years after the action of the story, discovers a bundle of papers, wrapped in a piece of scarlet cloth (the scarlet letter). After reading the papers, he composes the novel. This audiobook jumps right to the action, with Hester Prynne being let out of prison. That's a lot of information to be missing, and I think, reason enough to pick one of the other versions available.
There is also a tin-can sound quality at times, but I got used to that.
