Beskrivelse
Far from the Madding Crowd is a classic Wessex novel by Thomas Hardy that follows the story of Gabriel Oak, a young farmer, and his pursuit of the independent Bathsheba Everdene. Their journey is marked by love, loss, and unexpected twists.
A timeless tale of love and life's complexities set against the vivid backdrop of the English countryside.
This novel introduces a cast of unforgettable characters, including the charming Sergeant Troy, whose carefree outlook on life is summed up in his belief that "the past was yesterday; never, the day after." Alongside him is Mr Boldwood, a reserved and solitary gentleman farmer, whose intense feelings for Bathsheba fill him with a deep sense of vulnerability when they first meet.
Set amid the ever-changing moods of the Wessex countryside, the story captures the essence of rural England, making it one of the most quintessentially English novels ever written.
With an introduction and notes by Norman Vance, Professor of English at the University of Sussex, this edition offers valuable insights into Hardy’s pastoral masterpiece.
