The Pursuit of the Well-Beloved is a novel by the renowned English author Thomas Hardy. The book tells the story of Jocelyn Pierston, a sculptor who becomes obsessed with finding his ideal woman, whom he calls his ''Well-Beloved.'' Over the course of the novel, Jocelyn searches for this woman through various relationships with different women, all of whom fall short of his ideal. Along the way, he must confront the consequences of his own actions and the toll his obsession takes on himself and those around him. The Pursuit of the Well-Beloved is a complex exploration of love, desire, and the human psyche, and is considered one of Hardy’s most introspective and philosophical works. It is a must-read for fans of Hardy’s writing and for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human relationships.Serial version that Hardy later reworked into the longer tale.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
