{"product_id":"mayor-of-casterbridge-the-2","title":"Mayor of Casterbridge, The","description":"Part of Penguin''s beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a fit of drunken anger, Michael Henchard sells his wife and baby daughter for five guineas at a country fair. Over the course of the following years, he manages to establish himself as a respected and prosperous pillar of the community of Casterbridge, but behind his success there always lurk the shameful secret of his past and a personality prone to self-destructive pride and temper. Subtitled ''A Story of a Man of Character'', Hardy''s powerful and sympathetic study of the heroic but deeply flawed Henchard is also an intensely dramatic work, tragically played out against the vivid backdrop of a close-knit Dorsetshire town.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39324915630180,"sku":"9780241347775","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/8207\/1652\/files\/9780241347775_1-mayor-of-casterbridge-the.jpg?v=1759559084","url":"https:\/\/suomalainen-test.myshopify.com\/products\/mayor-of-casterbridge-the-2","provider":"Suomalainen Test","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
