Nathaniel Hawthorneâ€™s best-loved tales are now available in a revised Norton Critical Edition.
This revised Norton Critical Edition brings together twenty-three of Hawthorneâ€™s tales in all their psychological and moral complexity. The Second Edition adds the early biographical sketch â€œMrs. Hutchinsonâ€ as well as two tales, â€œThe Wives of the Deadâ€ and â€œDr. Heideggerâ€™s Experiment.â€ Each tale is accompanied by explanatory annotations.

â€œThe Author on His Workâ€ contains the prefaces Hawthorne wrote for the three collections of tales published during his lifetimeâ€•The Old Manse, Twice-Told Tales, and The Snow Image. Also included are pertinent selections from his American Notebooks and relevant letters to, among others, Sophia Peabody, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Margaret Fuller.

â€œCriticismâ€ offers important contemporary assessments of Hawthorneâ€™s tales by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe, Margaret Fuller (new to the Second Edition), James Russell Lowell, Herman Melville, and Henry James. Modern criticism is well represented by twelve essaysâ€•four of them new to the Second Editionâ€•on the talesâ€™ central issues. Contributors include Jorge Louis Borges, J. Hillis Miller, Judith Fetterley, Nina Baym, Leo Marx, and Martin Bidney, among others.

A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
