Publisher Description: Coketown's prosperity is built on the cotton mills where thousands slave away for long hours and little pay. Gradgrind's greed damages his children Louisa and Tom, leading to scandal and disaster. "Hard Times" celebrates the importance of the human heart in an age obsessed with materialism. Circus, music, and dark comedy abound in this Dickensian theatrical tale. |
