Thomas Hardy is one of my favorite authors. But, I haven't read any of his books for quite some time. So, this school year, I'm going to revisit a Thomas Hardy novel each month. One day, I hope to visit his home, Max Gate, in Dorset. Sounds like a great field trip for next summer, or the summer after. Think of how amazing it would be to sit in Thomas Hardy's study! Here is the preliminary reading schedule, subject to change or to random whim, of course:
September: The Woodlanders
October: A Pair of Blue Eyes
November: Far From the Madding Crowd
December: Tess of the d'Urbervilles
I'm hoping to continue on with my usual book club, as well. We'll see if I'm up to the task!
