A basic boy meets girl plot. There's nothing offensive, earth shattering or over-taxing here, just a pleasant window into 19th century rural life. So, pour yourself a mug of cider and settle down to enjoy a light read.
This is so similar to other books by Thomas Hardy but it is lighter more silly. I struggled with Fancy's Character I found her so frustrating. I'm still not sure I'm satisfied with the ending.
