Nathaniel Hawthorne's family was deeply affected by his father's death when he was just four years old. His mother withdrew emotionally, and Hawthorne's relationships within his family were strained, particularly with his mother and maternal relatives. This loss had a lasting impact on Hawthorne, influencing his writing and themes of isolation and guilt.
