"In 1973, the BBC commissioned six writers, six directors, and an exceptional cast of actors to undertake the Wessex tales of Dorset author Thomas Hardy. These tales-- of witchery, revenge, thwarted passion, costly ambition, buried desire, madness and betrayal-- find their participants entrapped repeatedly by fate-- always at liberty to make choices but inevitably confronted by their destiny"--Container.
