Most Vivid Images

• The first main image from chapters 9-15 of "The Scarlet Letter" is when Roger reveals the "A" on Arthur's chest. They had just had a very long hypothetical conversation about sin, and Roger noticed how Arthur was constantly holding his chest. After Arthur fell into a deep sleep, Roger lifted his shift to reveal the letter A, in the same place of Hester's.
• Another main image from these chapters is when Roger, Hester, and Pearl are all up on the scaffold holding hands. This is the first time they are all together, being able to show their real identities.
• The third image I can see from these chapters is how Hester has changed so significantly. Hester has lost her entire feminine features. She constantly cuts her hair back, she doesn't wear makeup, and she is falling apart. The ironic thing is that this was supposed to be the job of the scarlet letter, but it isn't. She has chose to life this life by helping the needy in her society and rebuilding her reputation.
