Wessex Tales, a collection of short stories that includes ""The Three Strangers,"" ""The Withered Arm,"" and ""The Distracted Preacher,"" deals with a number of timeless themes seen so often in Hardy's work--marriage, class, revenge, and disappointed love. Many of the tales have a supernatural tinge, and all are set around Hardy's beloved homeland.
