EMMA HARDY DIARIES Emma Hardy's surviving diaries, published here in full facsimile for the first time, cover periods between 1874 and 1897. They give a vivid and lively account of her travels with her famous husband, and reveal what a biographer has called Emma's "moments of disorganized poetry”. In verbal snapshots they record, with an idiosyncratic vision, details of individuals and places and incidents. Emma's vigorous writing is directed by a determined mind, sure in its views, and this quality consistently holds the reader's interest. These diaries, enhanced by Emma Hardy's sketches, are fascinating in themselves and for the glimpse they afford of the wife of one of England's foremost writers. Richard Taylor has provided a full introduction, notes, and a transcription of the text.
