- W2407689755 abstract "According to his friend Sir George Douglas, Thomas Hardy within ten years of the publication of Desperate Remedies in 1871 ‘was wont to treat it cavalierly, speaking of it as a “sensation novel” of the Miss Braddon school, which in the early ‘eighties implied reproach, if not contempt’.1 A further decade later, when he gave a copy of the novel to Florence Henniker in 1893, he apologised for the work, saying he ‘hardly’ thought it ‘worth having,’ but that she might be ‘amused to read’ his ‘first venture.’2 In the Prefatory Note to the 1912 edition of the novel he called it a ‘sensational and strictly conventional narrative,’3 and in the Life (composed a few years later) he made clear that he regarded the writing of a sensation novel as a false first step in his career, a mistaken attempt to write in a genre not suited to his talents. Calling Desperate Remedies a ‘melodramatic novel, quite below the level of The Poor Man and the Lady’ (his unpublished first attempt at fiction), he explained the work as the ‘unfortunate consequence’ of ‘too crude an interpretation of George Meredith’s advice’ (to put aside The Poor Man and the Lady and ‘attempt a novel with a purely artistic purpose’ and with ‘a more complicated “plot”’). In retrospect he could see that the plot ‘had been concocted in a style which was quite against his natural grain’" @default.
