📱 eBook en inglés THOMAS HARDY

The seminal biography of a great poet, novelist and sacred figure in English writing, Thomas Hardy, from bestselling author Clare Tomalin.

An extraordinary story, beautifully told. Tomalin is the most empathetic of biographers Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday

Paradox ruled Thomas Hardys life. His birth was almost his death; he became one of the great Victorian novelists and reinvented himself as one of the twentieth-centurys greatest poets; he was an unhappy husband and a desolate widower; he wrote bitter attacks on the English class system yet prized the friendship of aristocrats.

In the hands of Whitbread Award-winning biographer Claire Tomalin, author of the bestselling Charles Dickens: A Life and The Invisible Woman, Thomas Hardy comes vividly alive.

Another triumph for a biographer who goes from strength to strengthMelvyn Bragg, Guardian, Books of the Year
