The Mayor of Casterbridge es una novela del autor inglés Thomas Hardy, publicada por primera vez en 1886. La historia se desarrolla en la ciudad ficticia de Casterbridge, basada en Dorchester, Dorset, y sigue la vida de Michael Henchard, un hombre que vende a su esposa e hija en un ataque de ira y embriaguez. Años después, se convierte en el alcalde de Casterbridge, pero su pasado regresa para atormentarlo, llevándolo a una espiral de autodestrucción. La novela explora temas como la ambición, el arrepentimiento, el destino y las consecuencias de las acciones pasadas.

Thomas Hardy was an English novelist, poet and architect. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, including the poetry of William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain such as those from his native South West England.
