A Mere Interlude - Thomas Hardy 1885 ****




I've actually never heard of this book and I know quite a few of Hardy's novels.

This is really 3 novellas. All completely different and all totally mesmerizing. Hardy has a wonderful way with words and the descriptions of the countryside are superb.

Reading this has made me want to read a full length novel of his, maybe Tess maybe The Mayor but I know that I will look forward to escaping into his world whenever the time comes.
