{"product_id":"9781857157178","title":"Hardy Poems by Thomas Hardy","description":"Distringuished as both a great novelist and a great poet. Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) had a writing career which spanned more than sixty years, concentrating first on prose and then, after publishing his last novel in 1895, on verse. A master of the short lyric and the vivid narrative, Hardy is pre-eminently the poet of remembrance and tender regret for lost happiness; but he is also an ironist whose exquisite descriptions of rural life are the setting for bitingly sharp observations of human frailty.,\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Binding: Hardback,\u003cbr\u003ePagination: 256 pages","brand":"Everyman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48358135857379,"sku":"9781857157178","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1701\/6275\/files\/9781857157178.jpg?v=1772468177","url":"https:\/\/www.harbourbookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781857157178","provider":"The Harbour Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
