A romantic classic set during the Napoleonic Wars. Who should Anne choose to marry: a rich man, a soldier or a sailor? T

homas Hardy, the English novelist and poet, was born on 2nd June 1840, in the small village of Higher Bockhampton. The village is in the county of Dorset, in the southwest of England. The Hardy family was poor, but Thomas’s parents were interesting and intelligent people. Thomas’s father was a builder and stonemason – he cut and shaped pieces of stone for building. And he was a good musician. Jemima Hands, Thomas’s mother, had been a servant before her marriage, but she loved reading and she owned many books. Thomas was the first child, but later he had a brother and two sisters. The Hardy and Hands families had lived in the Higher Bockhampton area for a very long time, so Thomas grew up with many close relatives nearby, and he knew them all well. Although Thomas’s parents were ordinary working people and they didn’t have much money, they wanted their children to be well educated. Thomas’s father taught his son to play the violin and his mother told Thomas many strange stories about the people of Dorset. Thomas’s first school was in Higher Bockhampton, but in 1849 he was sent to school in Dorchester, the nearest town. This school was a good one and Thomas learnt about many

In 1867, Thomas decided to return to Dorchester. He still worked as an architect’s assistant, but by now he knew that he wanted to be a writer. He wrote a novel, but he could not get it published. This did not stop Thomas writing, and soon he was working on a second novel. In 1870, Thomas was sent to the village of St Juliot in north Cornwall, in the far west of England. The old church in the village was in very bad condition. Thomas’s job was to make drawings of it and find out if the church could be repaired or rebuilt. This visit to Cornwall changed Thomas’s life completely, because he fell in love there. The lady he fell in love with was the sister-in-law of the clergyman at the church. Her name was Emma Lavinia Gifford, and she had fair hair and blue eyes. Thomas had often been in love with pretty women, though never for very long. But Emma was different from anybody he had known before. She, too, loved poetry and novels, and she also wanted to be a writer. Hardy the novelist Emma encouraged Thomas to go on writing novels, and in 1871 one of them was published. It was called Desperate Remedies. It was not very popular and Thomas didn’t earn much money from it. But his next book, Under the Greenwood Tree, was more successful. It is a story about working people in Dorset at the time of Thomas’s own father and grandfather. It is unusual THOMAS HARDY

Great Expectations

Macbeth

Charles Dickens, retold by Florence Bell Human Interest/Romance

William Shakespeare, retold by Margaret Tarner Mystery/Human Interest/Thriller

‘“Quiet, you little devil! Keep still – or I’ll cut your throat!” “Oh, don’t cut my throat, sir!” I cried. “Please don’t!” “Tell me your name,” the man growled. “Pip, sir, Pip!” I answered.’

Shakespeare’s Scottish story of witchcraft and murder is probably one of his darkest works. Macbeth’s bloody rise to power is encouraged by his wife, Lady Macbeth. Like her husband, Lady Macbeth’s ambition leads her into a dark world of guilt and madness which slowly destroys their marriage, and ends in tragedy.

One windy evening, eight-year-old Pip meets an escaped convict. Shortly afterwards, he visits the strange Miss Havisham. Pip is told he has ‘great expectations’.
