This isn't an easy story to get into. I felt the second half of the story way surpassed the first half. I found the primary character Bathsheba Everdene very irritating and contrary. She was well written but a difficult character to feel sympathy for. It was the staunch and upright Gabriel Oak that I invested in as a reader.This is quite a lengthy story filled with wonderful  detailed descriptions of the English farming community in the 1900 century and worth the read for that alone. Such an angst filled story.
