    Thomas Hardy

    Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) is best known for his novels, Far from the Madding Crowd (1874), Return of the Native (1878), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the D'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895), which was denounced as morally objectionable. Hardy, disgusted with this reaction, declared he would never write fiction again and devoted the rest of his literary career to poetry.

      Although more famous for his novels, Thomas Hardy was also an adept writer of short stories. He’s just as capable of mixing comedy with tragedy and at foreshadowing events in the subtlest of ways in this more restricted format.He’ll often mention something that seems so trivial that you wonder how it’s significant to the story and why include it, only for that “Ah!” moment to hit you later on when realisation dawns.The stories on the whole don’t make a classic collection, but there are some entertaining pieces in the mix. “The Waiting Supper” is a particularly well-crafted tale
