The only type of story where one can be sure of the author's point of view is a narrative story, however many stories can offer clues about the author's opinion. Thomas Hardy, for instance, often romanticized couples who struggled with social stigmas. It is safe to assume that Thomas Hardy did not agree with the social mores of his day.
In the poem he speaks of the persona being a "queer man" going to a beach frequently to stare at nothing then leave. We later find out that he is staring at the ghost of a woman he once knew and loved. He misses her terribly and we see her absence provoking a strain on him tho she is not aging or changing he is 'withering' Many assume the persona is Thomas Hardy himself and the horse-woman to be his deceased first wife Emma
