Tess O'Toole uncovers Hardy's career-long fascination with the
points of intersection between genealogy and fiction and argues
that this relationship fuels much of his writing. Hereditary
patterns are the product of narrative compulsion; the circulation
of the family story is necessary to reproduce the history it
records. As well as analyzing Hardy's characteristic treatment of
family history, this volume revises existing accounts of
genealogical narrative, and in its conclusion considers the
presence in other nineteenth- and twentieth-century novels of
motifs foregrounded in Hardy's work.
