Far From the Madding Crowd: Extra Large Print (Volume 1) [Large Print]

By Thomas Hardy

Book Overview

This edition is written in bold, font size 24. When Bathsheba Everdene inherits a large farm, her life soon becomes entwined with three very different suitors: Gabriel Oak, the humble and honest shepherd; Boldwood, the reserved gentleman-farmer; and Sergeant Troy, the vain, irresponsible but dashing soldier. The result of this complex relationship is a tangle of love, jealousy and tragedy. Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), was born in Higher Brockhampton, near Dorchester, and Far From the Madding Crowd was his first major success, enabling him to leave his architectural post and pursue a literary career. Far From the Madding Crowd has since been adapted for stage, screen and television, and continues to be as popular today as it was when first published over a hundred years ago.
