At this time of the year, as the nights close in and the temperature drops, winter seems like a season that nobody really enjoys, and we look forward all the more to spring. For many children, however, it is the bounty of Christmas that steals their attention, and for others the renewal of the New Year. But for Nature it is a pause for breath, to take stock of what has gone by in the year to date and ready herself for the energies and dramatic development to the landscape that spring will bring.

Story1
Read by Juliet Stevenson and Simon Callow, A Literary Christmas is a seasonal anthology that collects together poems, short stories, and prose extracts by some of the greatest poets and writers in the English language. Like Charles Dickens’ ghosts of Christmas Past and Present, they are representative of times old and new - from John Donne’s Elizabethan hymn over the baby Jesus to Rudyard Kipling’s "Christmas in India", from Thomas Tusser counting the cost of a Tudor feast to Laurie Lee’s "Cider with Rosie".

Thomas Hardy brings us an England that once existed but no more. It is rural, traditional, pastoral - a society of mannered conduct that flows like a deep river where powerful currents eddy and swirl. In this powerful novel of love and disillusion, Hardy's heroine is torn between the three men in her life. Passionate but capricious, her romantic involvements have fascinated generations of readers.

Considered one of the greatest tragic novels in English literature, TESS OF THE D’URBERVILLES (1891) tells the poignant tale of a pure woman ensnared by the rigid constraints of conventional morality and its stark opposites. Set in the picturesque region between Berkshire and Dorset in the fictional county of Wessex, Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) masterfully weaves a narrative that exposes the harsh realities of late 19th-century rural life. Known for his controversial views, Hardy often challenged the strict Victorian moral code; his novel JUDE THE OBSCURE was even burned by the Bishop of ...

In a moment of frustration and intoxication, a wayward farm-worker makes a life-altering decision by selling his wife and child to a stranger. This marks the beginning of The Mayor of Casterbridge, a poignant tale set against the backdrop of rural England in the mid-1800s. Hardy referred to this narrative as the story of a man of character, and the protagonist, Michael Henchard, stands out as one of the most compelling figures in English literature. Henchards complex personality and his tragic flaws mirror the essence of a Greek or Shakespearean hero—his fierce determination matched only by ...
