The Marble Faun
Murder and romance, innocence and experience dominate this sinister novel set in mid-19th-century Rome. Three young American artists and their friend, an Italian count, find their lives irrevocably linked when one of them commits a violent crime of passion. Hawthorne's final novel is "must reading" for its symbolic narrative of the Fall of Man.

I would love to see this turn into a film. Or an anime series. It's my favorite Hawthorne novel and on my short list of all time favorite novels.
