Hard Times - Charles Dickens
Now, what I want is, Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts.
Feeding both his pupils and his family with facts, he bans fancy and wonder from young minds. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else.Coketown is dominated by the figure of Mr Thomas Gradgrind, school owner and model of Utilitarian success. As a consequence his obedient daughter Louisa marries the loveless businessman and \'bully of humility\' Mr Bounderby, and his son Tom rebels to become embroiled in gambling and robbery.
And, as their fortunes cross with those of free- spirited circus girl Sissy Jupe and victimised weaver Stephen Blackpool, Gradgrind is eventually forced to recognise the value of the human heart in an age of materialism and machinery.
