Hard times

Dickens, Charles 1812-1870 (Author). Roland, J. V. (John V.) (Added Author).

Summary: Hard times takes place in Coketown, a town of factories, great machines and tall chimneys. Life means work to the people who live there, not rest - life means fact, fact, fact. And the ugliest fact about Coketown is the town itself. Mr. Gradgrind, the owner of the school, believes in fact alone - "you must forget the word fancy" - and brings up his children on this belief. But life has a few lessons of its own to teach Gradgrind and his "self-made" friend Bounderby; and these lessons come from an unexpected source.
