As an architect, Thomas Hardy is known only for his red-brick suburban villa, Max Gate. This book takes a wider view, arguing that architects do not just make buildings, but use other forms to change how we see and use the world. Illustrated with a wealth of his little-known drawings, it shows how Hardy developed Wessex, just as an architect would.
