Penguin Popular Classics--The Mayor of Casterbridge ( Complete and Unabridged Series)
Paperback cover and 386 pages in total.
Under the powerful influence of rum furmity, Michael Henchard, a hay-trusser by trade, sells his wife Susan and their child Elizabeth-Jane to Newson, a sailor for five guineas. Years later, Susan, now a widow, arrives in Casterbridge and following the sale of his wife, took a twenty-one-year vow not to drink, out of shame. Henchard remarries Susan and as Elizabeth-Jane believes herself to be Newton's daughter, he adopts her as his own. But he cannot evade his destiny by such measures, for his past refuses to be buried.
