William Henry Channing noted in his review of the collection, in The Harbinger, its author "had been baptized in the deep waters of Tragedy", and his work was dark with only brief moments of "serene brightness" which was never brighter than "dusky twilight". Contents The birthmark -- Young Goodman Brown -- Rappaccini's daughter -- Mrs. Bullfrog -- The celestial railroad -- The procession of life -- Feathertop: a moralized legend -- Egotism; or, the bosom serpent -- Drowne's wooden image -- Roger Malvin's burial -- The artist of the beautiful.
