REVIEW: MAYOR OF CASTERBRIDGE
The Mayor of Casterbridge
by Thomas Hardy
ISBN: 1593083092
Genre: Classic Literature
My Review: I was surprisingly pleased by this book. Although there were many tragic aspects to this story, I don’t think this was the most tragic book I’ve ever read. It was sad how Henchard sold his wife and daughter. Because he does this stupidly drunk thing, it begins a sorrowful chain of events. I felt pity for poor Henchard but my heart broke the most for Elizabeth Jane. All of the things Henchard went through is a great example of there being consequences to our actions. All in all, this was one of the greatest emotional novels I have read in a really long time.
