Description
The Mayor of Casterbridge A Story of a Man of Character by Thomas Hardy Set in the heart of Hardy's Wessex, this novel charts the rise and self-induced downfall of a single man of character. The fast-moving narrative is marked by tragic force and features some of the author's most striking episodes and brilliant passages of description. With its vivid and readable portrayal of life in the late 19th century, The Mayor of Casterbridge is a compelling and thought-provoking read. The novel's ingenious contrivance and Shakespearian tragic force make it a gripping and unforgettable story. A new edition of this beloved novel, featuring an introduction and notes by Professor Michael Irwin, provides a fresh perspective on this story of human nature and the consequences of our choices.
