Far From the Madding Crowd (Thomas Hardy)

Amanda and Dayelle take a moody stroll through the English countryside with Thomas Hardy’s Far From the Madding Crowd and its 2015 film adaptation. Let’s just say… Dayelle may never live this one down. (There’s a dog. There’s a flock of sheep. There’s trauma.) Will Amanda forgive her? TBD. They’re breaking down Bathsheba’s many romantic entanglements, the gut-punch subplots, and the dramatic love triangle(s) that put modern-day rom-coms to shame.
