À propos de cet audio

Michael Henchard, drunk at a country fair, sells his wife and baby daughter for five guineas. The following day, in despair and remorse, he forswears alcohol and sets out to redeem himself. In time, he becomes a respected merchant and eventually the mayor of the town. But Fate is not to be so easily appeased, and Henchard finds his past actions resonate through and destroy his plans for the future.

One of the greatest novels in the English language, The Mayor of Casterbridge sees Thomas Hardy at his best, bringing landscape and richly imagined characters to life, and setting the hope of love against the forces of Providence.

I wondered whether I'd enjoy Lesser's voice. His narration of Hardy's bittersweet tale was absolutely spot-on and simply brilliant! I simply couldn't get enough of the book and was sorry when it was finished. But it tidied up nicely at the end leaving the listener satisfied. This is my second read of Hardy and first of Lesser and I'll be searching more books from these two. I will most likely be listening to this book again. I completely recommend this book!

Loved the story from beginning to end
