Book Overview

by Thomas Hardy (Author)

Tess of the d'Urbervilles tells the story of a country girl descended from a noble line who is seduced and left pregnant. After her baby dies, she meets a man who abandons her on their wedding night when she confesses her past. Desperate, she returns to her seducer seeking revenge.

Tess of the d'Urbervilles is considered a major nineteenth-century English novel and possibly Hardy's masterpiece. Tess emerges as a powerful character because Hardy's feelings for her were strong, perhaps stronger than for any of his other invented personages.

This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.

About Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), whose writing immortalized the semi-fictional Wessex countryside and dramatized his sense of the inevitable tragedy of life, wrote fifteen novels, including The Return of the Native (1878), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895). He is also renowned as one of the greatest poets of his era.
