'Far from the Madding Crowd' is another of those books (of which there are LOTS) that I've been wanting to read for the longest time. I really need to re-read it, so that I can write a review for my literary fiction blog. In fact, I would call it a feminist novel, as it attacks 'the double standard' in romantic relationships, and thus, the whole basis of the patriarchy. That novel alone made Hardy one of my favorite authors! Since I know that you,too, have read it, you know how powerful a work that is. A solid very good copy of this superb collection of Hardy's most famous works, a great title to serve as an introduction to his works.I have only read one of Hardy's novels - 'Tess of the D'Urbervilles'.
