~ Collector’s Edition ~ Laminated Hardback with Jacket ~A centuries-old curse hangs over a crumbling mansion, where the sins of the past refuse to stay buried. The Pyncheon family’s wealth was built on a dark secret, and now, the house seems to exact its toll on each generation. As the last remaining heirs-an aging woman, her troubled cousin, and a mysterious stranger-grapple with their family’s legacy, they must confront the forces that bind them to their tragic history. Within the mansion’s shadowy walls, a reckoning looms, and the question remains: can they break free from the curse that has cursed them all?The House of the Seven Gables is a cornerstone of American gothic literature, blending dark psychology with social critique. Through its exploration of inherited guilt, Hawthorne delves into the complexities of New England’s Puritan legacy and its impact on future generations. The novel reflects the growing tension between America’s idealized history and the reality of its moral failings, particularly concerning issues of class and justice. In this haunting tale, Hawthorne not only crafts a gripping narrative but also offers a profound commentary on the burdens of the past in shaping the present.
