Everything that happens is written very atmospheric, gradually thickening events to an inevitable outcome.

- A love story written by someone who was touched by the beautiful scenery of Norway, as evidenced by the detailed descriptions of the place.

- Smooth reading, very pretty, with graceful irony personifying superstition and fears in the unknown. The Apple Tree Table is a cool little ghost story where rationalistic skeptics were right, and it turns out that there is a mundane explanation. And oddly enough for Melville, at the end there is even a message of pro-Christianity.

- Wessex Tales contains seven stories, the first two of which are really very short – the rest are much longer. In this collection, Hardy explored the familiar themes of marriage and rural life that we see in his novel. The Three Strangers is surprisingly atmospheric, with a delightful little twist, although, in short, this is a perfectly thought out little story, a small isolated cottage filled with...
