Description: Two on a tower. By by Thomas Hardy Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Two on a Tower (1882) is a novel by English author Thomas Hardy, classified by him as a romance and fantasy and now regarded as one of his minor works. The book is one of Hardys Wessex novels, set in a parallel version of late Victorian Dorset.Hardy placed an epigraph at the beginning of this book. The epigraph is from a Richard Crashaw poem, Loves Horoscope. It reads: "Ah, my heart her eyes and she Have taught thee new astrology. Howeer Loves native hours were set, Whatever starry synod met, Tis in the mercy of her eye, If poor Love shall live or die." Two On A Tower is a tale of star-crossed love in which Hardy sets the emotional lives of his two lovers against the background of the stellar universe. The unhappily married Lady Constantine breaks all the rules of social decorum when she falls in love with Swithin St. Cleeve, an astronomer who is eight years her junior. Her husbands death leaves the lovers free to marry, but the discovery of a legacy forces them apart. This is Hardys most complete treatment of the theme of love across the class and age divide and the fullest expression of his fascination with science and astronomy.
