Description

The Woodlanders  (1887) is Hardy’s eleventh novel.  The story takes place in a isolated and claustrophobic woodland community.  There is rivalry for the hand of Grace Melbury between a simple and loyal woodlander and an exotic and sophisticated outsider. Betrayal, adultery, disillusion, and moral compromise are all worked out in a setting evoked as both beautiful and treacherous.
