Two on a Tower #319207

"Two on a Tower" elevates a tale of star-crossed lovers to the celestial sphere, where Hardy intricately explores the themes of love, class, and the cosmos. Viviette, a lonely, beautiful widow, and Swithin St. Cleeve, an ambitious young astronomer, find their fates intertwined under the watchful gaze of the heavens. Amidst the backdrop of a Victorian society rife with social constraints, their forbidden love story defies the bounds of their worlds. Hardy crafts a poignant narrative that is as much about the universal longing for connection as it is about the infinite mysteries of the stars above.
