Twenty Days with Julian and Little Bunny by Papa

Author(s): Nathanial Hawthorne; Paul Auster (Introduction by)

Fiction

On July 28th, 1851, Nathaniel Hawthorne's wife Sophia and daughters Una and Rose left their house in Western Massachusetts to visit relatives near Boston. Hawthorne and his five-year-old son Julian stayed behind. How father and son got along over the next three weeks is the subject of this tender and funny extract from Hawthorne's notebooks, perhaps one of the earliest - and certainly one of the most winning - accounts in literature of a father caring for a young child.
