About this listen

Tony Kytes is a favourite with the girls but he’s not terribly clever. If you meet an old girlfriend and she asks for a ride home in your wagon, do you say yes? And then if you meet the girl you are planning to marry, what do you do? Very soon, Tony is in a great muddle, and does not know how to escape from it. These stories are set in an English country village of the nineteenth century, but Hardy’s tales of mistakes and muddles and marriages belong in any place, at any time.

An Oxford Bookworms Library reader for learners of English, adapted from the Thomas Hardy original by Jennifer Bassett.

Critic reviews

"The most consistent of all series in terms of language control, length, and quality of storytelling." (David R Hill, ELT JOURNAL REVIEW, 2008)
