Description
|
|
|
|
From a stunning opening chapter, when drunken hay-trusser Michael Henchard sells his wife and daughter for five guineas to a sailor, Thomas Hardy's 1886 novel follows the life of Henchard who, overcome by guilt, swears he will not touch alcohol for 21 years. Sober and diligent, he becomes a successful merchant and the mayor of Casterbridge, but his own obstinate nature insures his decline and downfall after his wife and daughter return 18 years later. Like the other titles in this series of affordable classics, this book has been reset in fresh type. It includes a frontispiece illustration and a brief biography of the author.
