520    The records of American author Nathaniel Hawthorne’s early
       life are few, and the meagre information they contain tell
       us little about this important man of letters before he 
       became famous.  In this intimate family portrait, however,
       his son Julian Hawthorne picks up the writerly reigns to 
       complete a thorough and loving biography of his father  
       Nathaniel and his mother, Sophia Peabody Hawthorne.  
       Julian’s portrait of his parents paints intimate accounts 
       of life in the Hawthorne home that include such private  
       glimpses as the ever-familiar scene of his father 
       wrestling with his vivid thoughts in his darkened room, or
       pacing the quiet and solitary path between the pines while
       his mother Sophia went about her domestic duties with  
       lightheartedness and cheer. For anyone interested in the 
       subject of genius and matrimony or life in the Berkshires 
       in the nineteenth-century, this well-written biography is 
       a must read. Follow along as son Julian recalls the 
       felicity and inward peace of an American author whose 
       family life was founded on plain day to day living and 
       high thinking.
