Why does the Reverend Mr. Hooper mysteriously don a black veil and never take if off in public? Nathaniel Hawthorne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

Keep an ear open for our Kickstarter for The Golden Triangle – the seventh novel in the Arsène Lupin series. Two boxed sets are now available. We’ll let you know when we’re ready to kick off.
Dealing with the concepts of sin, repentance and morality, and set in Puritan New England, the veil in today’s story is a critique of the Puritan’s concept of original sin. The acrimonious reaction of the townspeople to the minister’s behavior easily lends itself to exploring these concepts. I hope you like it.
And now, The Minister’s Black Veil, by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
