Wessex was the 'partly-real, partly-dream' county that formed the backdrop for most of Hardy's writings - named after an Anglo-Saxon kingdom & modelled on the counties of Devon, Dorset, Berkshire, Hampshire, Somerset & Wiltshire. The poems deal with Hardy themes of disappointment in love & life & the struggle to live a meaningful life.
