Bathsheba Everdene is young and beautiful and well aware of it. She is also strong-willed, vain, fickle and willing to challenge her status as a woman in a man’s world. She is courted by (or courts!) three suitors – the stoic and dependable Gabriel Oak, the brooding wealthy landowner William Boldwood, and the dashing cad Sergeant Troy. Who will she choose, and will her wild ways be tamed?
