Shame, Despair, Solitude! These had been her teachers - stern and wild ones - and they had made her strong, but taught her much amiss. ... ~The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne
"The Scarlet Letter" made a huge impression when I first read it when I was a young teenager. Bev, this is one of your very best. The quote is so apt and the feeling of a broken life and despair is palpable. Superb and thoughtful artwork.
Wonderful portrayal of the broken spirit, a fractured heart . A perfect quote to complete the theme!
