Description


A Pair of Blue Eyes – One of Thomas Hardy’s Earlier Masterpieces

Beautiful stories about love and the duty that women were expected to fulfill back in the “old days” are not uncommon. However, if you want to find one of the most unique and remarkable of these stories, A Pair of Blue Eyes – one of the most distinguished earlier works of Thomas Hardy’s – is probably one of the best books you can consider.

Centered around a female character who has a very difficult choice to make between her father’s wishes and her own heart’s desire, the book will captivate even modern day readers just as much as it did people throughout the past decades, providing the best in entertainment, drama, intrigue and heartbreak, while making everything all the more exciting through Hardy’s unmistakable writing style.

Elfride Swancourt, the beautiful young woman with the blue eyes that the novel’s name points to, has met a young architect by the name of Stephen Smith whose attention she enjoys very much. Unfortunately, Stephan’s inadequate social status draws unwanted attention from the girl’s father, who forbids her to see him again. Elfride finds herself face to face with another suitor, an older and significantly wealthier gentleman who goes by the name of Henry Knight. What will her ultimate decision be?

Although the plot is seemingly simple, there are plenty of complex twists and actions that will surprise or even bewilder you. In fact, some even think the word “cliffhanger” originated from this novel, due to an episode during which Henry Knight found himself being left hanging from a cliff.

Whether you’re more interested in the exciting suspense or the intriguing love affairs, A Pair of Blue Eyes is a book that will never disappoint.
