【内容紹介】The phrase `life's little ironies' is now proverbial, but it was coined by Hardy as the title for this, his third volume of short stories. While the tales and sketches reflect many of the strengths and themes of the great novels, they are powerful works in their own right. Unified by his quintessential irony, strong visual sense, and engaging characters, they deal with the tragic and the humorous, the metaphysical and the magical. The collection displays the whole range of Hardy's art as a writer of fiction, from fantasy to uncompromising realism, and from the loving re-creation of a vanished rural world to the repressions of fin-de-siecle bourgeois life. 【大阪教育図書刊日訳書「トマス・ハーディ短編全集〈第3巻〉人生の小さな皮肉」より 内容紹介】人生の不可思議さを語るハーディの面白さ。暗い小説家ハーディのイメージを変える、円熟期の短編小説。
