"So sad!"

"yikes... um so i had no idea what to expect, and i was not so pleasantly surprised. i didn't pick up on hardy's commentary on the victorian class system until more than halfway through the book. the actual story is worthless except for the subtle lessons it teaches."

"Thomas Hardy is one of those authors who just “gets” the world. Apart from its tragic plot, this book makes you reflect on little daily things like how bricks on a house hold their warmth hours after sun set. How leaves glint in the sun when the wind flutters through, super romantic world view, mixed with a solid plot, and amazingly more comas than this comment. "
Bio has a joke in it.
"Far from the madding crowd, the mayor of casterbridge. Nothing is better than Tess though. "
