Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid fails to conform to one of the most common expectations of a short story, namely that it is of such a length that it may be read at a single sitting. In its initial American publication, in Harper's, it is obviously a short novel or novella, running in seven instalments from June 23rd to August 4th. Although its full text was published under a single cover in England, in the The Graphic Summer Number, it was advertised in the regular edition of that weekly on Saturday, June 23rd, as "A COMPLETE NOVEL Running through the Number"

Excerpt: ...A faint, though deep, voice told him to come in. The room he entered was the library, and it was tenanted by a single person only--his patron the Duke. During this long interval of years the Duke had lost all his heaviness of build. He was, indeed, almost a skeleton; his white hair was thin, and his hands were nearly transparent. 'Oh--Mills?' he murmured. 'Sit down. What is it?' V/j; 'Nothing new, your Grace. Nobody to speak of has written, and nobody has called.' 'Ah--what then? You look concerned.' 'Old times have come to life, owing to something waking them.' 'Old times be cursed--which old times ae they?' 'That Christmas week twenty-two yearfe ago, when the late Duchess's cousin Frederick implored her to meet him on Marlbury Downs. I saw the meeting--it was just such a night as this--and I, as you know, saw more. She met him once, but not the second time.' 'Mills, shall I recall some words to you--the words of an oath taken on that hill by a shepherd-boy?' 'It is unnecessary. He has strenuously kept that oath and promise. Since that night no sound of his shepherd life has crossed his lips--even to yourself. But do you wish to hear more, or do you not, your Grace?'" 'I wish to hear no more, ' said the Duke sullenly. 'Very well; let it be so. But a time seems coming--may be quite near at hand--when, in spite of my lips, that episode will allow itself to go undivulged no longer.' 'I wish to hear no more!' repeated the Duke. 'You need be under no fear of treachery from me, ' said the steward, somewhat bitterly. 'I am a man to whom you have been kind--no patron could have been kinder. You have clothed and educated me; have installed me here; and I am not unmindful. But what of it--has your Grace gained much by my staunchness? I think...

Download or read book The Withered Arm and Other Stories 1874 1888 written by Thomas Hardy and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-08-31 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "See if she is dark or fair, and if you can, notice if her hands be white; if not, see if they look as though she had ever done housework, or are milker's hands like mine." So Rhoda Brook, the abandoned mistress of Farmer Lodge, is jealous to discover details of his new bride in 'The Withered Arm', the title story in this selection of Hardy's finest short stories. Hardy's first story, 'Destiny and a Blue Cloak' was written fresh from the success of Far From the Madding Crowd. Beautiful in their own right, these stories are also testing-grounds for the novels in their controversial sexual politics, their refusal of romance structures, and their elegiac pursuit of past, lost loves. Several of the stories in The Withered Arm were collected to form the famous volume, Wessex Tales (1888), the first time Hardy denoted 'Wessex' to describe his fictional world. The Withered Arm is the first of a new two-volume selection of Hardy's short stories, edited with an introduction and notes by Kristin Brady.
