About this listen

In rural Victorian England, the willful Bathsheba Everdene is courted by three men: her repressed neighbor, a devoted shepherd, and a thriftless soldier. They cross and clash again and again in tragedy, grief, betrayal, misguided affections, and the follies of romantic love. Though far from the fury of the city, the drama they engender is equal to the whole of the universe in madness and passion.

Hardy’s Far from the Madding Crowd, his first literary success, is one of the great love stories of English literature.

Thomas Hardy’s best!

This is my favorite book of all the great British authors! The story is wonderful. The writing is brilliant! The plot is still as fresh as the day it was written. This is the third time I’ve read it and I never grow tired of it!
