What work of Nathaniel Hawthorne is set in seventeenth-century Salem?

The Scarlet Letter

Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter is set in seventeenth-century Salem due to the historical significance of the setting in the story. The other options are incorrect because they are not written by Nathaniel Hawthorne nor do they take place in seventeenth-century Salem. The Great Gatsby was written by F. Scott Fitzgerald and is set in the 1920s, The Grapes of Wrath was written by John Steinbeck and is set during the Great Depression, and Wuthering Heights was written by Emily Bronte and is set in nineteenth-century England.
