| Description: | Select Guide Rating Thomas Hardy's perennially popular and oft-adapted fourth novel follows the intertwining lives of its characters - free-spirited Bathsheba Everdene, infatuated neighbour William Boldwood, dashing soldier Sergeant Troy, tragic Fanny Robin and faithful shepherd Gabriel Oak - to unfold as one of the greatest love stories of all time. Little treasures, the FLAME TREE COLLECTABLE CLASSICS are chosen to create a delightful and timeless home library. Each stunning, gift edition features deluxe cover treatments, ribbon markers, luxury endpapers and gilded edges. The unabridged text is accompanied by a Glossary of Victorian and Literary terms produced for the modern reader. Thomas Hardy’s perennially popular and oft-adapted fourth novel, Far from the Madding Crowd (1874), was also hugely successful in his day. Following the intertwining lives of its characters, we watch as independent and free-spirited Bathsheba Everdene makes various false starts with her infatuated neighbour William Boldwood and the dashing soldier Sergeant Troy (who is also involved with the tragic Fanny Robin), before finally accepting that her heart lies with faithful shepherd Gabriel Oak. It truly deserves its designation as one of the greatest love stories of all time. |
