In an old New England mansion, heavy with shadows and secrets, an ancient curse still lingers. The Pyncheon family, marked by guilt and ambition, lives under the specter of a crime committed generations ago. Within the dark walls of the House of the Seven Gables, the echoes of the past intertwine with the lives of its new inhabitants: the melancholic Hepzibah, the gentle Clifford, and the radiant Phoebe, whose arrival brings a ray of hope to a home condemned by time.
The House of the Seven Gables stands as one of the masterpieces of American Romanticism—a novel of decay, justice, and the eternal conflict between the past and the human conscience.
