from inside jacket Thomas Hardy ropes with compassion about simple people whose lives are altered dramatically by forces beyond their control. In the five novels selected for this unique letter rate Omnibus - Far From the Madding Crowd, the Return of the Native, the Mayor of Casterbridge, Tess of the d'Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure - Hardy follows the tragedies and triumphs of natives of his Wessex countryside who are challenged by deteriorating traditions, representative social institutions, and changes wrought by the modernization that typified the Victorian era. Hardy mapped a rugged and imaginative terrain within the human heart and wrote expressively of characters ennobled by their struggle to survive In a world of shifting values.
