About Book:

Set against the hauntingly beautiful backdrop of Wessex, Tess of the d'Urbervilles traces the fate of Tess Durbeyfield, the daughter of a poor and wayward villager, who discovers a tenuous link to the once-noble d'Urberville lineage. In pursuit of dignity and redemption, Tess is swept into a tumultuous journey marked by love, betrayal, and crushing societal expectations.
Tess of the d'Urbervilles is a powerful meditation on hypocrisy and the cruel double standards of Victorian society. It lays bare the rigid moral codes and gender inequities of the time and remains one of Hardy's most powerful and controversial works.
