About the book

The poems of Thomas Hardy range across love, loss, memory, nature, rural life, war and the passage of time. Better known initially as a novelist, Hardy became one of the most important English poets of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His verse often combines plain speech with intricate form, reflecting on personal relationships, vanished landscapes and the ironies of fate.
