Mayor of Casterbridge
Thomas Hardy, 1886
HARDY, Thomas (1840-1928). The Mayor of Casterbridge. London: Smith, Elder & Co., 1886.
First edition in book form. The novel was originally published in weekly installments in both the Graphic and Harper's Weekly from 2 January to 15 May 1886. It was published in book form on 10 May 1886 in a small print run of 758 copies, of which only 650 were bound. Recognized as one of Hardy’s greatest prose works, the author nevertheless regretted the necessity of adding incident and intrigue to every weekly installment. Purdy pp. 50-51.
