The Woodlanders by Thomas Hardy When country-girl Grace
Melbury returns home from her middle-class school she
feels she has risen above her suitor the simple woodsman
Giles Winterborne. Though marriage had been discussed
between her and Giles Grace finds herself captivated by Dr
Edred Fitzpiers a sophisticated newcomer to the area—a
relationship that is encouraged by her socially ambitious
father. Hardys novel of betrayal disillusionment and moral
compromise depicts a secluded community coming to terms
with the disastrous impact of outside influences. And in
his portrayal of Giles Winterborne Hardy shows a man who
responds deeply to the forces of the natural world thought
they ultimately betray him.
