Each of Thomas Hardy's novels is filled with striking visual images
-- characters, interior settings, buildings, village scenes, and
open tracts of land. These images are all rendered with a vitality
and energy immediately recognizable as Hardy's own. In fact, Hardy,
whose style owed much to his abilities as a draughtsman, once
remarked that he saw his narratives as a series of images. J. B.
Bullen explores this fascinating link between the image and the
idea in the fiction of Thomas Hardy, and demonstrates how Hardy
approached his work from a particular "point of view" which not
only determined the lighting, composition, and structure of his
literary visual effects, but which also allowed him to express
emotions and ideas in the direct, "vividly visible" fashion that is
the hallmark of his greatest fiction.
