The House of the Seven Gables = Дом о семи фронтонах: на англ.яз

Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804—1864) was an American novelist, dark romantic, and short story writer. «The House of the Seven Gables» is one of Hawthorne’s defining works, a vivid depiction of American life and values replete with brilliantly etched characters. The tale of a cursed house with a «mysterious and terrible past» and the generations linked to it, Hawthorne’s chronicle of the Maule and Pyncheon families over two centuries reveals lives «caught in the common fire of history».
