Far from the Madding Crowd is perhaps the most pastoral of Hardy's Wessex novels. It tells the story of the young farmer Gabriel Oak & his love for & pursuit of the elusive Bathsheba Everdene, whose wayward nature leads her to both tragedy & true love. It tells of the dashing Sergeant Troy whose rakish philosophy of life was '...the past was yesterday; never, the day after'. & lastly, of the introverted & reclusive gentleman farmer, Mr Boldwood, whose love fills him with '...a fearful sense of exposure', when he first sets eyes on Bathsheba. The background of this tale is the Wessex countryside in all its moods, contriving to make it one of the most English of great English novels. 19.8 x 12.9 x 1.9 cm, pages 331 ...

Farewell To The East End

Following on from the bestselling Call the Midwife and Shadows of the Workhouse, Jennifer continues her story. Post-war life could be a struggle - the devastating effects of TB, dangerous backstreet abortions, people driven to extremes by poverty - but there was also warmth and humour. Like Megan'mave - identical twins who share the same browbeaten husband; the eccentric Sister Monica Joan; and gauche debutante Chummy who wants to be a missionary. As the 1960s dawned, docklands, began to change beyond all recognition. Farewell to the East End chronicles the lives, culture and stories of a bygone era.
