Focusing on narrative structure, irony, satire and allusion, The
Hidden Hardy offers a radical new perspective on Thomas Hardy's
novels. Hardy's own accounts of himself and his work have long been
seen as calculated impostures; it is argued here that the same
qualities are not only present in his novels, but are critical
factors in the way they are made. The respectable and acceptable
surfaces are the impostures, masking hidden texts which are
extremely hostile to established social, economic and cultural
structures.
