Join us for this book club chat in which we discuss Thomas Hardy's novel The Woodlanders. We have the privilege of reuniting with our dear, BYU professor, John Bennion, who is a Hardy expert and himself a novelist. We talk about how Hardy was superb at his craft because he could weave interesting stories set in beautiful landscapes, where the roll of nature is almost equally important as the rolls of the characters molded from it. A beautiful yet somber autumn read for anyone who could use a dose of British nature worship.
