Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
ISBN: 9781853260056 PUBLISHER: Wordsworth Editions Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 384 PUBLICATION DATE: 5.05.1992 DIMENSIONS: 198mmX129mmX20mm 240grams
DESCRIPTION: Set in Hardy's Wessex, Tess is a moving novel of hypocrisy and double standards. Its challenging sub-title, A Pure Woman, infuriated critics when the book was first published in 1891, and it was condemned as immoral and pessimistic. It tells of Tess Durbeyfield, the daughter of a poor and dissipated villager, who learns that she may be descended from the ancient family of d'Urbeville. In her search for respectability her fortunes fluctuate wildly, and the story assumes the proportions of a Greek tragedy. It explores Tess's relationships with two very different men, her struggle against the social mores of the rural Victorian world which she inhabits and the hypocrisy of the age.
