The Marble Faun (+Biography and Bibliography) (Matte Cover Finish): The Marble Faun is Hawthorne's most unusual romance, and possibly one of the strangest major works of American fiction.

The climax comes less than halfway through the story, and Hawthorne intentionally fails to answer many of the reader's questions about the characters and the plot.
