The Withered Arm by Thomas Hardy
3.0
I love the little black classics as they really allow you to get a glimpse into author's work. I have a love/hate relationship with classic literature and so these little black classics are an amazing way for me to try out a new author without having to commit to a full novel.
This book was really enjoyable. Both of the stories were entertaining and quick to read: The Withered Arm went in a much different direction than I initially thought it would but it was good and The Thieves Who Couldn't Help Sneezing was a really short and funny tale. I think I will definitely be reading more of Thomas Hardy's work in the future.
Also the star rating should probably be higher I just often don't know fully how to rate classic literature and so they often end up with a middling rating like this. I would recommend this book though
