NOTES
The powerful and moving novel that shocked readers in 1891. 'A strong woman who recklessly throws away her strength, she is worse than a weak woman who has never had any strength to throw away.' Thomas Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles is heartbreakingly beautiful novel challenging the social mores of the Victorian Era. When Tess finds her family's fortunes have changed, she is forced to claim kinship with a wealthy family and seek part of their fortune
