About the book

This three-volume collection brings together short fiction by Thomas Hardy, set largely in the fictional region of Wessex that provides the background to his novels. The stories range from romance and rural comedy to tragedy, coincidence and the supernatural. Hardy's interest in fate, social convention and the unpredictable consequences of human choices appears throughout, accompanied by his vivid evocation of the changing communities and landscapes of nineteenth-century rural England.
