HARD TIMES

In Hard Times, author Charles Dickens confronts the soul-crushing indignation on the working class in the Industrial Age in England. This is Dicken’s shortest novel but his most impassioned indictment of dehumanization of the 19th Century Industrial landscape. It follows a tapestry of characters from the Victorian era as they sink into despair in their community beholden to those in power who, as Dickens later pointed out, “See people as figures and averages, and nothing else.” While the topic is serious and important, this novel is a brilliant read for its engaging characters and Dicken's unique gift for storytelling.
