Description
Hard Times by Charles Dickens is a powerful exploration of the human cost of industrialisation and social change. This edition includes an introduction by Philip Collins. The novel tells the tragic story of Louisa, who struggles to find emotional well-being in a world that values productivity over imagination. Her loveless marriage serves as a backdrop for Dickens' scathing critique of Victorian society. Through Louisa's story, Dickens sheds light on the darker aspects of industrial progress and the consequences of neglecting the human spirit.
