Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

The Contributors Club called Far from the Madding Crowd """"as fine a piece of work as anything in fiction we have had from England in ten or fifteen years""""; Culture and Progress called it """"one of the most unique of modern novels."""" In rural Victorian England, a headstrong young woman inherits her uncles farm. Three different men love her, some of them perhaps only for her wealth.

L'autore

Thomas Hardy was a poet and novelist of the naturalist movement. He trained as an architect. He was a religious man who was also deeply influenced by Darwin and fascinated by ghosts and spirits.
During his lifetime, he was best known for his novels. His stories combine nuanced description of natural surroundings with the sense of impending moral crisis. He claimed that poetry was his first love, though, and in recent years his poetry has received much critical acclaim.
