X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Join us to discuss this month's selection\
 ,&nbsp\;<em>The Scarlet Letter</em> by Nathaniel Hawthorne.</p>\n<p>The Sc
 arlet Letter was originally published in 1850 and was a bestseller at the 
 time. This powerful American story of secret love and sin\, of spiritual h
 ypocrisy and moral courage\, and of female bravery during a time when wome
 n were rarely respected\, resonated with readers then and continues to do 
 so now.</p>\n<p>Set in the staunchly Puritan world of 1600s Boston Hester 
 Prynne has committed adultery and given birth to an illegitimate daughter\
 , Pearl\, while her elder husband is away. Refusing to reveal Pearl's fath
 er Hester is punished and scorned by the community and forced to wear a re
 d letter "A".</p>\n<p>Over seven years Hester\, Pearl's father\, and Heste
 r's estranged husband Roger Chillingworth\, suffer the consequences of bet
 rayal\, guilt revenge\, and humiliation.</p>\n<p>All are welcome\, includi
 ng those who haven't read the book. If you have any questions\, feel free 
 to email us at&nbsp\;fertile@larl.org.</p>\n<p style="text-align: center\;
