Book Overview

by Thomas Hardy (Author)

Written by Victorian England author Thomas Hardy, Far from the Madding Crowd, first published in 1874, follows the lives and relationships of the independent and strong-willed Bathsheba Everdene and the three men competing for her love as they navigate societal expectations and class differences. Gabriel Oak is a humble and honest sheep farmer, William Boldwood is a wealthy and successful landowner, and Frank Troy is a dashing, but reckless and dangerous soldier. Each have traits that draw Bathsheba to them in different ways. The novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations, and paints a vivid picture of rural life in 19th century England. It is considered one of Hardy's most popular and enduring works, and has been adapted into several films, television dramas and stage productions.

About Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), whose writing immortalized the semi-fictional Wessex countryside and dramatized his sense of the inevitable tragedy of life, wrote fifteen novels, including The Return of the Native (1878), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895). He is also renowned as one of the greatest poets of his era.
