In addition to his great "Wessex Novels," Thomas Hardy wrote <i>Wessex Tales</i> (1896), a collection of six stories written in the 1880s and 1890s that, for the most part, are as bleakly ironic and unforgiving as the darkest of his great novels -- <i>Jude the Obscure.</i> But this great novelist began and ended his writing career as a poet. In-between, he wrote a number of books that many readers find emotionally-wrenching, but which are considered among the classics of 19th Century British literature, including <i>Far from the Madding Crowd, </i> and <i>Tess of the D'Urbervilles.</i> Readers will experience Hardy's uncompromising, unsentimental realism in <i>Wessex Tales, </i> and for those seeking a taste of the Dorset poet and novelist, they represent an ideal start.
