Abstract. In January 1882, when Hardy agreed to write Two on a Tower, he had reached a point almost exactly midway in his career as a writer of prose fiction.

Two on a Tower is Hardy's most complete and daring treatment of the theme of love between characters of different classes and ages. This sensational tale, which some reviewers of the first publication considered to be immoral, is informed throughout by the astronomical images and reflections that preoccupied Hardy at the time of the book's composition.
