Independent and spirited Bathsheba Everdene has come to Weatherbury to take up her position as a farmer on the largest estate in the area. Her confident presence draws three very different suitors: the gentleman-farmer Boldwood, the soldier-seducer Sergeant Troy and the devoted shepherd Gabriel Oak. Each, in contrasting ways, unsettles her decisions and complicates her life, and when tragedy ensues, the stability of the whole community is threatened. Thomas Hardy's novel of swift passion and slow courtship is imbued with evocative descriptions of rural life and landscapes, and with unflinching honesty about sexual relationships. 520 Tells the story of Bathsheba Everdene, who must choose among three suitors in Wessex in the 1840s. 650 0 Farm life |zEngland |zDorset |vFiction. |=^A1097554 651 0 Dorset (England) |xSocial life and customs |vFiction. |=^A26954 650 7 Farm life. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00921052 650 7 Manners and customs. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01007815 651 7 England |zDorset. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01212126 |?UNAUTHORIZED 655 7 Pastoral fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726695 655 7 Novels. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 Didactic fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726584 655 7 Romance fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01921732 655 7 Fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Pastoral fiction. |2gsafd 655 7 Didactic fiction. |2gsafd 655 7 Love stories. |2gsafd 655 7 Romance fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Pastoral fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Didactic fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Novels. |2lcgft 700 1 Morgan, Rosemarie, |eeditor, |ewriter of supplementary textual content. |=^A228649 700 1 Russell, Shannon Lee, |eeditor. |=^A1386536 830 0 Penguin classics. |=^A229330 949 |i30372017335636 |ojjlm 960 |o1 |s10.00 |tJoyner48 |uJHUM |zUSD 596 1 998 5186964
