The backdrop to this campaigning novel is the grim industrial centre of Coketown, with its belching chimneys, violet-dyed river & hordes of downtrodden mill hands.

Here headmaster Thomas Gradgrind sternly prepares his pupils for their pre-determined fate as industrial fodder. Facts & figures are all that he will tolerate, because he scorns fancy & forbids any use of the imagination. Gradgrinds own children are brought up on the same bleak doctrine.

There will be tragic consequences, both for his submissive daughter Louisa & degenerate son Tom, before their father acknowledges the value of the human heart. Hard Times is Dickens shortest novel, yet one of his most politically controversial & hard-hitting.
