About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid by Thomas Hardy. Read in English by Alisson Veldhuis; Eleanor Howard; Beth Thomas A milkmaid, Margery, encounters a mysterious foreigner and perhaps prevents him from committing suicide. In gratitude, the man offers her any reward she can name. She tells him she wants to go to a ball. He takes her, admittedly a bit reluctantly, to a yeoman's ball in a neighboring county. From there the story continues because of course, a lot happens after the ball. She happens to already have an engagement to a local lad but his hold over her seems to grow of it's own accord. This Hardy story ends in a surprising way for Hardy, with a relatively happy resolution. - Summary by Phil chenevert
