Krátký popis
Publikace: Hard Times - Dickens Charles. A novel of social and
moral themes, Hard Times is the archetypal Dickens novel, filled
with family difficulties, estrangement, rotten values and
unhappiness. Published in 1854, it is set in the imaginary
Coketown, an industrial city inspired by Preston, and tells the
story of the family of Thomas Gradgrind, a man obsessed with
misguided 'Utilitarian' values that make him trust facts,
statistics and practicality over emotion. Based on James Mill (the
Utilitarian leader), Gradgrind raises his own children, Louisa and
Tom, in line with these same views, forcing an artless existence on
them. Contemporary critics such as Macaulay savaged the book for
its supposed 'sullen socialism' but it has become well regarded
since earning the favour of George Bernard Shaw.This Macmillan
Collector's Library edition is illustrated by Harry French, with an
afterword by David Stuart Davies.Designed to appeal to the
booklover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of
beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan
