Sunday at Home (From "Twice Told Tales")

Description

"Sunday at Home (From "Twice Told Tales")" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a short story first published in 1837 as part of the Twice-Told Tales collection. The story appears in a volume where Hawthorne gathered previously anonymous magazine pieces into what critics praised as works of genius. Longfellow celebrated the collection's depth and tenderness, while Poe admired Hawthorne's remarkable originality and pure style. The tales explore themes with what one reviewer called "depth and tenderness of feeling, exceeding purity of mind."
