With images from the book.

Forest Dwellers is an unforgettable novel by the great writer of English literature, Thomas Hardy, about the reflections of the cosmic order in nature and its effects on human relations.

Grace Melbury, who lives in a forest village, chooses to marry the doctor Edred Fitzpiers, under the pressure of her father, instead of the poor and uneducated Giles Winterborne, who is interested in her. However, Fitzpiers, who has difficulty in keeping up with the customs of rural life, after a while betrays his wife and begins to flirt with Felice Charmond. This subterfuge, which disrupts the balance of social life in the village, triggers a chain of events in which nature rewards some characters and punishes others.

Forest Dwellers is a unique rural novel that adorns the themes of marriage, betrayal, illness and death with unforgettable sounds, images and colors specific to nature.

“The Forest Dwellers are Hardy's most beautiful and noble novel.”

WILLIAM LYON PHELPS

“With the death of Thomas Hardy, the English novel was left leaderless.”

VIRGINIA WOOLF
