Thomas Hardy
Far from the Madding Crowd was the first of Hardy's novels to give the name Wessex to the landscape of southwest England and the first to gain him widespread popularity as a novelist. Set against the backdrop of the unchanging natural cycle of the year, the story both upholds and questions rural values with a startlingly modern sensibility.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I certainly would recommend it. I loved the descriptions of the landscape, the agricultural life,What did you like best about this story?
The strong female character. I did hate to see her get into the disastrous entanglement with a "bounder."What does John Lee bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He gets the local accents, and characters sound "of the period," but the dialogue is easy for an American to understand.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Gabriel shows such loyalty to Bathsheba and to the proper management of the farm--saving the crops and livestock. I was touched by Fanny's desperate situation.Any additional comments?
I came to the novel via the new (2015) film which I also recommend. Reading the book rounds out the story. There's the interesting interlude in Bath.Such beautiful writing!
