Thomas Hardy : The Guarded Life

  • Thomas Hardy : The Guarded Life

  • Attribution

    Ralph Pite

  • Publication Details

    Book, Yale University Press, 2007

  • Description

    Internationally renowned as the author of Far From the Madding Crowd, Tess of the D?Urbervilles, Jude the Obscure, Wessex Poems and Other Verses, and Winter Words, Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) nonetheless remains an elusive and enigmatic figure. Pite examines the relationships and contexts that shaped Hardy most?the women in his life, his friends and mentors, social and family pressures, career structures of his day, the Devonshire landscape?and offers new insight into the man who, until now, was hidden behind an opaque public image he helped to create.

    Claire Tomalin

  • Publication Details

    Book, Penguin, 2007

  • Description

    Whitbread Award winner Claire Tomalin’s seminal biography of the enigmatic novelist and poet Thomas Hardy. When he published Tess of the d’Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure late in his career, Hardy explored a very different world than that of his rural tales, one in which the plight of lower classes and women take center stage while the higher classes are damned. He frequently toured London society, but few felt they knew the true Hardy, and it is this very core of self that Tomalin elegantly brings us to know so completely. In this engrossing biography, Tomalin skillfully identifies the inner demons and the outer mores that drove Hardy and presents a rich and complex portrait of one of the greatest figures in English literature.

    Book, Haus Books, 2005

  • Description

    Yet, he is one of the few, if not only, writers of the time to describe his world in exacting, caring detail - to tell us of ?the little man?, whether private soldier, sailor or a poor native boy. Having lived a charmed early childhood in India and experienced a rather more horrid existence in foster homes and boarding schools as a boy, Kipling?s early years equipped him with an imagination that allowed him to create such ever popular children?s classics as The Jungle Book and Just So Stories for Children.
