A riveting debut that continues the story of Pearl Prynne, the illegitimate daughter at the center of The Scarlet Letter, The Scarlet Daughter is about a heroine who defies her station to become a portraitist for nobility and an avenger of wronged women.
Born under the stain of her mother Hester’s scarlet letter, Pearl spends her childhood as an outcast in Salem. When fortuitous widowhood allows the pair to flee, their ocean voyage becomes an education for precocious Pearl, who is forced to endure the captain’s roving hands along with his navigational lessons but later takes her revenge by stealing his stargazer.
In England, Pearl encounters another lost soul, a fatherless boy named Isaac Newton, obsessed with the sun and patterns of light. As they grow into adulthood, Pearl and Isaac spend hours together, testing scientific theories and learning to draw and paint. But Pearl does not have the opportunities afforded to a man. With a household of orphans dependent on her, Pearl must take the commissions that are offered, even if they mean painting the dead …

“The Scarlet Daughter is a courageous imagining of the missing pieces of narrative suggested in Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter—and it’s far more than that. This is the novel our bookshelves have been missing, the story of Pearl Prynne: firebrand, artist, and revolutionary. I’ll be screaming its praises everywhere!”
(Maria Dahvana Headley, New York Times bestselling author of The Mere Wife and Beowulf: A New Translation)“The Scarlet Daughter is a tour de force, a historical adventure novel painted over a canonical classic. In bringing Pearl Prynne to life, Rachel Rose expands and challenges Nathaniel Hawthorne’s Scarlet Letter to show art (and artists) overcoming shame and patriarchal oppression.”
(Kevin Chong, author of The Double Life of Benson Yu)
