Notes:
On the day Mia Jacob sees no way out, the miraculous power of words saves her. The Scarlet Letter was written almost two hundred years ago, but it seems to tell the story of Mia's mother, Ivy, and their life in the Community - an oppressive cult in western Massachusetts, which forbids contact with the outside world and considers books evil. But how could Nathaniel Hawthorne capture so accurately the pain and loss that Mia carries within her?During a time journey marked by love and broken hearts, Mia must give up the rules she grew up with in the Community. As she does so, she realizes that reading can transport you to other worlds and that writers and readers influence each other in mysterious ways.
