Moments of Vision and Miscellaneous Verses (Selection)
Thomas Hardy
Leído por LibriVox Volunteers
Hardy claimed poetry as his first love, and published collections until his death in 1928. Although not as well received by his contemporaries as his novels, Hardy's poetry has been applauded considerably in recent years. Most of his poems deal with themes of disappointment in love and life, and mankind's long struggle against indifference to human suffering. (Summary from Wikipedia). (0 hr 56 min)

pretty good readings of Hardy's poetry
False Grind
This collection of Thomas Hardy's poetry is read properly and audibly by most of the readers here. As is usually the case with Librivox readings of English poetry collections, a dearth of Englishness in many of the readers voices is distractingly noticeable, but it's not a big problem here. It's an above-average reading, all said.
