'The woman is no good to me. Who'll have her?' Michael Henchard is an out-of-work hay-trusser who gets drunk at a local fair and impulsively sells his wife Susan and baby daughter. Eighteen years later Susan and her daughter seek him out, only to discover that he has become the most prominent man in Casterbridge. Henchard attempts to make amends for his youthful misdeeds but his unchanged impulsiveness clouds his relationships in love as well as his fortunes in business. Although Henchard is fated to be a modern-day tragic hero, unable to survive in the new commercial world, his story is also a journey towards love. This edition is the only critically established text of the novel, based on a comprehensive study of the manuscript and Hardy's extensive revisions.

評分穆齊爾說男人對女人的深情,就像一隻花豹對著新鮮剛死的獵物在溫柔的咕咕,如果那獵物敢對他的方式說三道四他是要見怪的。 伐尓伏雷發現伊麗莎白沒有在她的主人傢裏好好等他時受瞭小小的刺激,而且是在他們沒有任何約定的情況下。哈代說男人就是這樣想入非非自以為是的東西。 ...
