Requests:  1 Summary:  This updated authoritative edition of the classic Hardy novel, which was published anonymously and first attributed to George Eliot, is set from Hardy's revised, unedited final draft of 1912 and features a new Introduction and Afterword. There is in England no more real or typical district than Thomas Hardy's imaginary Wessex, the scattered fields and farms of which were first discovered in Far from the Madding Crowd. It is here that Gabriel Oak observes Bathsheba, the young mistress of Weatherbury Farm, fall victim to her amorous caprices. He stands by her through one marriage to a handsome, corruptly sentimental sergeant. Selflessly altruistic, he sees her through another betrothal to her compulsive, puritanical neighbor-as unaware as she of the stroke of Fate that will effect their ultimate union. Published anonymously and first attributed to George Eliot, Far from the Madding Crowd won Hardy immediate success; it combines an architecturally perfect plot with the philosophical overtones that were to set the theme for all his later works. The text of this Signet Classic is set from Hardy's revised final version of Far from the Madding Crowd , published in 1912 in the authoritative Wessex edition.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Manoa Public Library YA -- Fiction Hardy Classics Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library YA -- Fiction Classics pbk Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library YA -- Fiction Classics pbk Item being held Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library YA -- Fiction Hardy Classics Checked In Add Copy to MyList
