About the book

Thomas Hardy's Far from the Madding Crowd follows the independent and spirited Bathsheba Everdene after she inherits a farm in rural Wessex. Her arrival attracts three very different men: the loyal shepherd Gabriel Oak, the prosperous farmer William Boldwood and the charming but reckless Sergeant Troy. Their relationships bring romance, jealousy and tragedy into Bathsheba's life as she struggles to manage both her farm and her own emotional choices. Hardy combines a powerful love story with vivid descriptions of rural life, exploring independence, loyalty, passion and the unpredictable consequences of human desire.
