The Mayor of Casterbridge Chapter 15

from The Thomas Hardy Library · host Thomas Hardy

In which a young woman newly endowed with finery discovers the subtle arts of social adornment and the quiet stirrings of attention in Casterbridge, while the friendship between two men faces a tender strain amid a stubborn servant’s tardiness. The stern mayor’s authority wanes beneath the genial influence of his companion, and uneasy feelings shadow their once steadfast camaraderie.
