Hard Times

Meer over het boek

As part of our 225th anniversary celebrations in 2017, we're paying homage to seven popular classics by reproducing them as limited edition yellowbacks. Nowadays yellowback books are a rare collector's item but back in the late 1800's they were a common sight on Britain's railways. Yellowbacks are an incredibly important part of the history of WHSmith, cementing our place in the books and rail industries, and we are very proud of the role we played in bringing books to the masses.This is a special yellowback edition of Hard Times by Charles Dickens, a damning indictment of Utilitarianism and the dehumanising influence of the Industrial Revolution from one of the best-loved novelists in the English language.
