Thomas Hardy: Far from the Madding Crowd, Gebunden

Klappentext

Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy is a pastoral novel that tells the story of Bathsheba Everdene, an independent and headstrong young woman who inherits a farm in rural England. Admired by three very different men-the loyal shepherd Gabriel Oak, the wealthy but lonely farmer William Boldwood, and the dashing but reckless soldier Sergeant Troy-Bathsheba's choices in love bring both joy and hardship. Through trials of betrayal, tragedy, and loss, she gradually learns humility and maturity, eventually recognizing the steady devotion of Gabriel Oak. The novel explores themes of love, fate, pride, and the struggles of rural life, while celebrating the beauty and harshness of the English countryside.
