The Mayor of Casterbridge is a story of a man who attempts to escape from his past but who finally dies alone and in bitter sorrow. As Mayor of Casterbridge, Michael Henchard is an important man. But the wife he sold to a sailor for five guineas when he was drunk returns, bringing her daughter with her. But is this girl the same Elizabeth-Jane that Henchard sold with his wife? And is he going to lose her again to the man he hates?
The Mayor of Casterbridge has been abridged and simplified by E. F. Dodd.
