Alpha Library editions of Thomas Hardy's famous works. Octavo, original cloth with gilt titles, top edges gilt. In very good condition. Thomas Hardy, a prominent Victorian novelist and poet, is known for his exploration of fate, social constraints, and rural life in England. His first published novel, Desperate Remedies (1871), blends sensation fiction with elements of Gothic mystery, marking an experimental departure from the more realist works that would define his later career. In contrast, Far from the Madding Crowd (1874) established Hardyâs reputation, introducing the fictional region of Wessex and emphasizing themes of love, independence, and the harsh realities of rural existence.

The Thin Paper Edition of Books by Thomas Hardy. Duodecimo, six volumes bound in the original publisher's sheepskin with gilt titles and elaborate botanical tooling to the spines, top edge gilt, tissue-guarded frontispiece to each volume. In near fine condition with light rubbing to the extremities, book plate to the front pastedown of 'Jude the Obscure', ownership signatures to some volumes. A charming set. Thomas Hardy was an English novelist and poet. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, especially William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain, such as those from his native South West England. While Hardy wrote poetry throughout his life and regarded himself primarily as a poet, his first collection was not published until 1898. Initially, therefore, he gained fame as the author of such novels as Far from the Madding Crowd (1874), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895). During his lifetime, Hardy's poetry was acclaimed by younger poets (particularly the Georgians) who viewed him as a mentor. After his death his poems were lauded by Ezra Pound, W. H. Auden and Philip Larkin. For the Wessex Edition "Hardy revised his novels throughout for the last time. In a 'General Preface to the Novels and Poems', dated October 1911 and printed in Vol. I, he explained his classification of his novels here adopted for the first time and offered a brief apologia for his work. This is an essay of primary importance. The Wessex Edition is in every sense the definitive edition of Hardy's work and the last authority in questions of text" (Purdy).
