Description

Far from the Madding Crowd is Thomas Hardy's fourth novel. Independent and spirited Bathsheba Everdene has come to Weatherbury to take up her position as a farmer on the largest estate in the area.

Each, in contrasting ways, unsettles her decisions and complicates her life, and tragedy ensues, threatening the stability of the whole community. The first of Hardy's works set in Wessex.
