The Diary of Mary Hardy, 1773-1809
In this volume of abridged diary text Mary Hardy has moved to Letheringsett, near the Norfolk market town of Holt. Her husband William is now a freeholder, if only of 50 acres, and owner of the long-established maltings and brewery. In an early example of mechanisation of a village brewery he converts his manufacturing business to water power using the River Glaven. Early hopes are realised. The Hardys' elder son Raven, a studious boy of great promise, is articled to a lawyer. Their talented younger son William energetically launches himself into helping his father, and expands the variety of their brews. The local playhouse proves an attraction for the family. But Raven dies of tuberculosis aged 19, after months of anguished home-nursing. The set of four volumes is offered at a special price (ISBN 978-0-9573360-4-9), where you can read more about this lavishly illustrated and annotated edition of the diary.

The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Hardy
Thomas Hardy's fiction has had a remarkably strong appeal for general readers for decades, and his poetry has been acclaimed as among the most influential of the twentieth century. His work still creates passionate advocacy and opposition. The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Hardy is an essential introduction to this most enigmatic of writers. These commissioned essays from an international team of contributors comprises a general overview of all Hardy' s work and specific demonstrations of Hardy's ideas and literary skills. Individual essays explore Hardy's biography, aesthetics, his famous attachment to Wessex, and the impact on his work of developments in science, religion and philosophy in the late nineteenth century. Hardy's writing is also analysed against developments in contemporary critical theory and issues such as sexuality and gender. The volume also contains a detailed chronology of Hardy's life and publications, and a guide to further reading.
