About the book

This three-volume collection brings together Thomas Hardy novels distinguished by intricate plots, coincidence and unexpected developments. Although Hardy is best known for his tragic novels, these works reveal his considerable skill in constructing complicated romantic and social situations. Themes of identity, inheritance, ambition and chance combine with his characteristic descriptions of Wessex, showing a more playful and inventive side of his fiction.
