In The Mayor of Casterbridge, Thomas Hardy weaves a powerful tale of guilt, redemption, and the inescapable grip of the past. Michael Henchard, a proud and impulsive man, makes a terrible mistake when he sells his wife and daughter at a country fair in a drunken rage. Years later, having risen to respectability as the Mayor of Casterbridge, he is confronted by the return of the very family he cast aside. As secrets unravel and rivalries intensify, Henchard's life begins to spiral. His tragic flaw-his stubborn pride-pushes him to make decisions that alienate those closest to him. Set against the vividly drawn backdrop of rural England, this deeply human story explores how a single moment can define a man's fate. With emotional depth, realism, and poetic prose, Hardy delivers a sobering look at ambition, character, and the price of redemption. A classic of Victorian literature, The Mayor of Casterbridge is a moving portrait of a flawed man trying desperately to outrun his past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Hardy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9373495550\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789373495552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kalamos Literary Services Llp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.54d","brand":"Thomas Hardy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801445183743,"sku":"9789373495552","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mayor-of-casterbridge-thomas-hardy-9789373495552","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
