One of Hardy’s most powerful novels, The Mayor of Casterbridge opens with a shocking and haunting scene: In a drunken rage, Michael Henchard sells his wife and daughter to a visiting sailor at a local fair. When they return to Casterbridge some nineteen years later, Henchard—having gained power and success as the mayor—finds he cannot erase the past or the guilt that consumes him. The Mayor of Casterbridge is a rich, psychological novel about a man whose own flaws combine with fate to cause his ruin.
This Modern Library Paperback Classic reprints the authoritative 1912 Wessex edition, as well as Hardy’s map of Wessex.
结识这本书不是因为它的作者、也不是因为它的名声、更不是因为与它有美好的过往,周末去区图书馆为儿子借书,一时好奇自己也办理了一个图书证,明知道里面的书很少且旧,但是它改换门庭以后,地方变大了环境更优雅、更惬意了,另外图书管理员虽然不是很热情但还是很友善的...
