NY: Modern Library; (no date). Hardcover. Dust Jacket Included. Early issue from about 1932, with the rear panel of the jacket stating there are 200 books in the Modern Library series. Flexible cloth binding (dark brown cloth), very good in a very good dust jacket. Owner's name on front endpaper; minor wear to the cloth. The jacket has numerous chips at the edges, with one chip at the bottom of the rear panel causing a small loss of wording. A tight and clean copy. Introduction by Joyce Kilmer.
Sinopsis
THOMAS HARDY was born on June 2, 1840. His father was a stonemason. He was brought up near Dorchester and trained as an architect. In 1868 his work took him to St Juliot's church in Cornwall where he met his wife-to-be, Emma. His first novel, The Poor Man and the Lady , was rejected by publishers but Desperate Remedies was published in 1871 and this was rapidly followed by Under the Greenwood Tree (1872), A Pair of Blue Eyes (1873) and Far from the Madding Crowd (1874). He also wrote many other novels, poems and short stories. Tess of the D'Urbervilles was published in 1891. His final novel was Jude the Obscure (1895). Hardy was awarded the Order of Merit in 1920 and the gold medal of the Royal Society of Literature in 1912. His wife died in 1912 and he later married his secretary. Thomas Hardy died January 11, 1928.
