520			_aSummary: A Pair of Blue Eyes is celebrated for its central scene which shocked and stimulated Victorian readers. Forever after it caused Hardy to be embroiled in arguments concerning the sexual morality of his novels in which he strove to show the stifling effects of social conventions on human spirit. Rich with biographical echoes, the story reveals the full emergence of the schematic ironies which characterized Hardy's later great works, and gives a suggestion of the tragic philosophy that came to dominate all he wrote. The loving nature of the blue-eyed heroine, Elfride Swancourt, pervades this early novel which has a singular, unpolished charm.
