American novelist and short story writer Nathaniel Hawthorne's (1804-1864) writing centers on New England, many works featuring moral allegories with a Puritan inspiration.

His themes often centre on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity.
