In a drunken stupour, Henchard commits a terrible crime - he sells off his wife and daughter to a stranger. When he sobers up, he vows not to touch alcohol again for another 21 years. Twenty-one years later, having become the Mayor of Casterbridge, he takes his first drink. What grotesque consequences will come of it?
