With unfailing honesty and lyrical writing, Thomas Hardy captured his heroes' intimate relationship with the natural and social environment. Here are three of his finest works, uncut. "Tess of the Durbervilles" tells the tragic tale of a poor girl's coming of age and traumatic relationships with two men. Michael Henchard, in "The Mayor of Casterbridge," reaches the pinnacles of power-only to lose everything. Set in Hardy's beloved Wessex, "Far From the Madding Crowd" centers on Bathsheba Everdene and the men who love her.
