    The short story “A Mere interlude” written by Thomas Hardy makes effective use of narrative voice to reveal the intentions of Hardy in crafting such a story. The irony of the title, as what was supposed to be “A Mere Interlude”, Baptista’s short and tragic marriage to her ex-lover Charles Stow, eventually takes form as a major turning point in her life.

She says “Well, I simply hate school. I don’t care for children- they are unpleasant, troublesome little things.” The basic but harsh language ‘simply hate’, ‘unpleasant, troublesome little things’ highlights Baptista’s…

Biodynamic practices may have an impact on not only the health of vineyard soil and crop, but also enology.
