Moments of Vision and Miscellaneous Verses

Edited by A.H. Ninham

A book of Thomas Hardy's poetry from 1917.
Thomas Hardy's poetry lies at the core of his artistic achievement. But it is the novels, in particular Tess ofthe d'Urbervilles, Far From the Madding Crowd, Jude theObscure, The Mayor of Casterbridge, The Woodlanders and TheReturn of the Native, that have made Hardy popular with readersand critics. For Hardy, though, the poetry is at the heart of hisartistic life. It contains his deepest emotions, his thoughts on the most intimate matters. The poetry is, as Robert Graves said, a 'spiritual autobiography'.
Includes a gallery of illustrations and an introduction to Hardy's poetry and novels.
