«The Three Strangers and Other Stories» is a collection of short stories by Thomas Hardy, published by Oxford University Press in paperback (80 pages).
A stranger arrives at a shepherd's cottage on a stormy night and asks for shelter, but does not give his name or purpose; he will not be the only visitor that night. Thomas Hardy's three stories portray shepherds, hangmen, dukes and schoolteachers, and show that they all share fear, hope, love and jealousy.
Part of the Oxford Bookworms Library collection, Classics series, level 3, with 1000 headwords and adaptation by Clare West.
For students of English as a foreign language, recommended for ages 15 and up.
Thomas Hardy was an English novelist, poet and architect. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, including the poetry of William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain such as those from his native South West England.
