Description of book

"Sketches from Memory (From: "The Doliver Romance and Other Pieces: Tales and Sketches")" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is written as a collection of recollections. Romance, travel, and navigating one's way through existence are the main themes of these short tales. These four fragments were originally part of Hawthorne's first grand conception The Story Teller in which the stories of the eponymous hero—a young vagabond named Oberon—would be told within the context of a series of American scenes.
