The Scholar's Library edition of Hardy's masterpiece. 'The woman is no good to me. Who'll have her?' Michael Henchard is an out-of-work hay-trusser who gets drunk at a local fair and impulsively sells his wife Susan and baby daughter. Eighteen years later Susan and her daughter seek him out, only to discover that he has become the most prominent man in Casterbridge. Henchard attempts to make amends for his youthful misdeeds but his unchanged impulsiveness clouds his relationships in love as well as his fortunes in business. Although Henchard is fated to be a modern-day tragic hero, unable to survive in the new commercial world, his story is also a journey towards love.

Santa Monica: Smart Art Press/Hardy Marks Publications, 2000. 2nd printing. Hardcover. New. New copy. 2nd printing. 300 pages, Hardcover, 12 7/8 x 9 3/4 inches, 2000. ISBN #0945367007. California native Don Ed Hardy was determined to be a tattoo artist at the age of ten and has been tattooing professionally since 1967. Fusing Asian aesthetics, traditional Japanese art, Western art history, and the imagery of surf culture, hot-rod art, and California funk, he has been instrumental in developing tattooing's artistic potential and fueling the late-century international tattoo boom. Tattooing the Invisible Man presents a survey of Hardy's paintings, etchings, lithographs, drawings, photographs, and elaborate tattoos, most never before published. Exploring the wide visual/cultural spectrum of Hardy's many influences as well as the profound involvement of his work within this same spectrum, Tattooing the Invisible Man is a magnificent chronicle of a powerful and uniquely extreme body of work.
