Thomas Hardy: The Time-Torn Man
Publisher: Penguin Books Limited
Author: Claire Tomalin
Audio lenght: 6 hours and 46 min.
Thomas Hardy, a great poet and a novelist with a world reputation, is one of the sacred figures in English writing. His life was also extraordinary: from the poverty of rural Dorset he went on to become the Grand Old Man of English life and letters, with his last resting place in Westminster Abbey. This seminal biography, by our leading biographer, covers Hardy's illegitimate birth, his rural upbringing, his escape to London in the 1860s, his marriages, his status as a best-selling novelist, and, in later life, his supreme achievements as a poet.
