Wakefield was a mild-mannered man of no particular energy or creativeness. The only problem his wife may find with him was that he previously a propensity to be secretive about small things as well as perhaps just a little selfish. Still, there was no hint that on the day he remaining for a brief trip, his plan was to take a room in the next block and spy on his better half. He would not return for two decades. How do his useful joke become an obsession? And why, after 20 years, did he suddenly choose to return? Nathaniel Hawthorne explains Wakefield as spellbound by his own actions and warns, "It really is perilous to produce a chasm in individuals affections - not that they gape such a long time and huge but so quickly close again." The tale continues to enthrall: E. L. Doctorow modernized the storyline 150 years after Hawthorne had written the original, and the movie Wakefield, starring Bryan Cranston and Jennifer Garner, will be released this season.
