Thomas Hardy

    June 2, 1840 – January 11, 1928

    Thomas Hardy was an English author renowned for his novels, though he considered himself primarily a poet. His works, largely set in the semi-fictional region of Wessex, often explore characters battling their passions and circumstances. Hardy's poetry, published later in his life, has garnered acclaim comparable to his novels. He is also noted for popularizing the literary device of the 'cliffhanger,' which he literally employed in one of his novels.
