En un arrebato de ira, Michael Henchard vende a su esposa e hija por cinco guineas en una feria. A lo largo de los años siguientes, logra establecerse como un pilar respetado y próspero de la comunidad de Casterbridge, pero detrás de su éxito siempre acechan el vergonzoso secreto de su pasado y una personalidad propensa al orgullo y al temperamento autodestructivo. Subtitulado 'Una historia de un hombre de carácter', el poderoso y comprensivo estudio de Hardy sobre el heroico pero profundamente defectuoso Henchard es también una obra intensamente dramática, trágicamente desarrollada en el vívido telón de fondo de una ciudad de Dorsetshire muy unida.
Thomas Hardy was an English novelist, poet and architect. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, including the poetry of William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain such as those from his native South West England.
