About this audiobook
"Far from the Madding Crowd," published in 1874, is one of Thomas Hardy's most celebrated novels and the first to introduce readers to the fictional county of Wessex. The story follows the independent and headstrong Bathsheba Everdene, who inherits her uncle's farm and decides to manage it herself, which was unusual for a woman of her time. Throughout the narrative, Bathsheba attracts three very different suitors: the loyal shepherd Gabriel Oak, the mature and prosperous farmer Mr. Boldwood, and the dashing but reckless Sergeant Troy. As the story unfolds, it delves deep into themes of love, honor, and betrayal against the backdrop of the pastoral English countryside.
Thomas Hardy
Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) was an English poet and author who grew up in the British countryside, a setting that was prominent in much of his work as the fictional region named Wessex. Abandoning hopes of an academic future, he began to compose poetry as a young man. After failed attempts of publication, he successfully turned to prose. His major works include Far from the Madding Crowd(1874), Tess of the D’Urbervilles(1891) and Jude the Obscure( 1895), after which he returned to exclusively writing poetry.
