Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In A Mere Interlude, Thomas Hardy compresses into brief compass one of his characteristic dramas of impulse, accident, and social consequence. The tale follows a young woman whose journey between duty and desire becomes a momentary escape with lifelong moral resonance. Written with Hardy's lucid, ironic precision, it belongs to the Wessex world of constrained choices, where landscape, chance, and convention press upon private feeling. Its 'interlude' is thus no trivial pause, but a revealing interruption in the Victorian marriage plot. Hardy, born in Dorset in 1840 and trained first as an architect, brought to fiction an acute eye for place, structure, and human vulnerability. His experiences in rural southwest England, later reimagined as Wessex, shaped his concern with class, gender, religious doubt, and the often pitiless machinery of social respectability. In stories such as this, his sympathy for women's limited agency is especially pronounced. Readers drawn to Hardy's major novels will find here the same tragic intelligence in miniature. A Mere Interlude is recommended for those who value psychologically subtle fiction, Victorian social critique, and narratives in which a fleeting decision exposes the deepest tensions of a life.…
