@Cunning_Linguist: I imagine Borders and B&N, and if indie bookstores don't have them maybe they'd order them for you?

I want The Scarlet Letter in a hangable print! It would be amazing in my bathroom!

@sassyredhead: This is only tangentially related, but I currently have a print hanging in my bathroom that depicts two pigeons sitting on a the back of a toilet, and it's titled "Stool Pigeons." It was made for bathroom display.

@WildSurmise: One [orange-gloved] hand is holding her necklace, the other one is at her waist, so I'm assuming they're wrapped in her shawl.
