Description

An independent woman farmer unsettles Victorian Wessex; the village gossips agree, Bathsheba Everdene must either appoint a bailiff or marry suitably. Bathsheba, on the other hand, is dazzled by pleasure-seeking Sergeant Troy-a folly that threatens the whole community. Hardy's most comic novel, Far From the Madding Crowd (1874) reveals a tender understanding of Nature and a profound love for humankind. - from Amzon
