About this product

Product Information

'Far from the Madding Crowd' is perhaps the most pastoral of Hardy's Wessex novels. It tells the story of the young farmer Gabriel Oak and his love for and pursuit of the elusive Bathsheba Everdene, whose wayward nature leads her to both tragedy and true love. It tells of the dashing Sergeant Troy whose rakish philosophy of life was '...the past was yesterday; never, the day after'. And lastly, of the introverted and reclusive gentleman farmer, Mr Boldwood, whose love fills him with '...a fearful sense of exposure', when he first sets eyes on Bathsheba. The background of this tale is the Wessex countryside in all its moods, contriving to make it one of the most English of great English novels. AUTHOR: Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) had a writing career which spanned more than fifty years, and he is now considered both a major novelist and poet. His tales of Wessex, a fictional amalgamation of various south-west counties, have a lasting appeal, and many, such as 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' and 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' have become popular television adaptations.

    Item in good condition, as described and at a great price. It took two weeks to arrive due to a failure of the postal service, during which time I received a refund. Excellent service and communication from the seller 👍

    A good as new copy of The Marvelous Land of Oz for a very good price. I was surprised by the quality, and by the colour plates, which aren't usual in other Dover publications. The book arrived in good time, in secure packaging, and is in the condition advertised - maybe a little better than shown. Very pleased with this purchase and will keep my eyes open for other purchases from this seller. Highly recommended.
