Far from the Madding Crowd
60 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 45min.
In rural Victorian England, the willful Bathsheba Everdene is courted by three men: her repressed neighbor, a devoted shepherd, and a thriftless soldier. They cross and clash again and again in tragedy, grief, betrayal, misguided affections, and the follies of romantic love. Though far from the fury of the city, the drama they engender is equal to the whole of the universe in madness and passion.
Hardy’s Far from the Madding Crowd, his first literary success, is one of the great love stories of English literature.
