520    "Do the wise thing and the kind thing too, and make the 
       best of us and not the worst."  "Now, what I want is 
       Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts
       alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out
       everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning 
       animals upon Facts; nothing else will ever be of any 
       service to them."  ― Charles Dickens, Hard Times  Hard 
       Times is the tenth novel by Charles Dickens, first 
       published in 1854. The book surveys English society and 
       satirizes the social and economic conditions of the era.  
       Hard Times is unusual in several ways. It is by far the 
       shortest of Dickens's novels, barely a quarter of the 
       length of those written immediately before and after it. 
       Moreover, it is his only novel not to have scenes set in 
       London. Instead, the story is set in the fictitious 
       Victorian industrial Coketown, a generic Northern English 
       mill-town.  The story concerns one Thomas Gradgrind, a 
       "fanatic of the demonstrable fact," who raises his 
       children, Tom and Louisa, in a stifling and arid 
       atmosphere of grim practicality. A classic audiobook 
       publishing event.  Produced by Macc Kay  Production
