This is the first book I've read by Thomas Hardy, and I really enjoyed it. Far from the Madding Crowd is on my list, and I hope I pick it up soon!

Hardy`s two short writings, a mystic-tragic and a humorous one. Short entertaining reads. ( )

A man leaves the first woman and find a yonger woman.
First woman didn't like younger woman.
One day she dreamed phantom look like first woman and

It is strange but interesting story.
But this last sean is difficult.

Dedication
First words
It was an eighty-cow dairy, and the troop of milkers, regular and supernumerary, were all at work; for, though the time of year was as yet but early April, the feed lay entirely in water-meadows, and the cows were 'in full pail'.
