Description |
By Charles Dickens and adapted by Stephen Jefferys. "Hard Times is Dickens' shortest novel and considered by many to be his most savage. It's his reaction against modern industrialisation, an indictment of economic rationalisation, and charts the birth of the trade union movement in Britain in the 19th Century through the strike in the manufacturing industry". |
