Томас Харди - электронные книги

Любовь и преступление причудливо переплелись в судьбе юной Тэсс, нищей наследницы древнего рода, обреченной на роль содержанки — и готовой переломить эту судьбу ценой собственной жизни! Став жертвой богатого повесы-соблазнителя, она протестует против грубого посягательства на человеческое достоинство и вынуждена совершить убийство. «Обманутый честный человек часто бывает очень жесток, когда с его глаз спадет пелена». Классический роман о страсти, трагедии и утрате, ставший в наши дни легендарным благодаря фильму Романа Полански.

Томас Гарди - романист, поэт, последний из представителей эпохи королевы Виктории. Романы "Тэсс из рода д'Эрбервиллей" и "Джуд Незаметный" из "Уэссекского цикла" поразили викторианскую общественность, а епископ Уэйкфилдский даже сжег свой экземпляр "Джуда". Два шокирующих шедевра английской классики вошли в книгу.

"An Imaginative Woman" by Thomas Hardy. Published by Good Press. Good Press publishes a wide range of titles that encompasses every genre. From well-known classics & literary fiction and non-fiction to forgotten−or yet undiscovered gems−of world literature, we issue the books that need to be read. Each Good Press edition has been meticulously edited and formatted to boost readability for all e-readers and devices. Our goal is to produce eBooks that are user-friendly and accessible to everyone in a high-quality digital format.

In this, his first collection of short stories, Hardy sought to record the legends, superstitions, local customs, and lore of a Wessex that was rapidly passing out of memory. But these tales also portray the social and economic stresses of 1880s Dorset, and reveal Hardy's growing scepticism about the possibility of achieving personal and sexual satisfaction in the modern world. By turns humorous, ironic, macabre, and elegiac, these seven stories show the range of Hardy's story-telling genius.
The critically established text, the first to be based on detailed study of all revised texts, presents manuscript readings which have never before appeared in print.
The stories include: The Three Strangers; A Tradition of Eighteen Hundred and Four; The Melancholy Hussar of the German Legion; The Withered Arm; Fellow-Townsmen; Interlopers at the Knap; The Distracted Preacher
