Let’s start out with what his revenge says about justice. To me, it’s kind of a side against another. Chillingworth might be the husband and wants to know who the hell Pearl’s father is, but again, it really is none of his business. He might have the somewhat right, but if Hester won’t spill it out, then let it be! Now going back to what it says about justice. This whole altercation is telling readers that justice can’t be found without the just actions. What I mean by that, for Chillingworth, if you want to find the truth, be straight forward! You can’t be sneaky about it! But then again, it does make the story great!

Now, what does it say about punishment and evil? We can connect back to justice and why you have to be straight forward to find the truth. For Chillingworth, he’s trying to be sneaky about the whole situation and is trying to get Dimmsdale to spill his guts. On the other hand, for Hester and Dimmsdale, the more they hold in their “sin”, the more Chillingworth annoys them and the more the townspeople will ridicule them. I don’t even know what that means, but it sounds great! Haha! Oh mock them.. I guess it makes sense! These events tell us that punishment IS evil and evil IS punishment and every single character needs to avoid them and just do what they need to do already! This story is crazy!

This book is pretty cool. I’m actually getting into it. Not like the other books (no offense, Mr. Isero). I like how it just all starts like this with the letter and baby’s daddy and real husband and all the good stuff! I hope this book will keep me interested the whole time. Only thing hard about this book is the diction. That’s all!
