World-renowned and very clever Professor of Short Books, Douglas Ullard...along with his Twenty-Two Minute and Seventeen Second Classic Literature Audio Armchair Theatre Company (or TTMASSCLAATC for short) brings you Nathaniel Hawthorn's Puritanical classic "masterpiece" in just...well...1,337 seconds.  So, if you’re trying to impress an American literature snob, then look no further than the book that all American students are forced to read sometime between kindergarten and their senior your in high school. So sit back and listen to this dark tale of how a villageful of puritans harass, bully and mentally torture a young woman and her child...all in the name of the Lord.
