The Sofa Shelf

Just one new book on the shelf this week.


The Woodlanders - Thomas Hardy

This is the last Hardy that I'm planning to read on this visit to his works. I'm thinking that it probably won't be a happy ending, but then you never know. Apparently it was one of Hardy's favourite stories. I've only read the preface which is all about the location of the novel's setting. Not knowing the area it didn't mean that much to me, but maybe one day I might have a cycling adventure in that part of the country. Has anyone read it? What did you think?
