Higher Bokhampton is the bithplace for Thomas Hardy, novelist from UK ( one of my favorite, haha). He born here on 2 June 1840 and died 11 January 1928. In this home he wrote Under The Greeenwood Tree ( 1872) and Far from The Madding Crowd (1874), another from his novel that maybe very famous are Tess of d' Urbervilles, The Poor Man and The Lady, Desperate Remedies, A Pair of Blue Eyes, The Return of The Native etc. But for me my favorite are Two on a Tower and The Mayor of Casterbridge. I really adore his written, some romance with tragical ending, hehe. That's really my thing :D.
By the way the cottage located in Dorset county and the home right now become tourist spot and everyday open from 11.00 - 17.00. Wish one day I can visit there :).
Thank you so much for this lovely postcard, serena!! :D
