"We said—do you remember?—that we would make a virtue of joy."
A book about choice, a wheel that grinds us into dust.

Hey, Jude...So you didn't get into Oxford (Christminster)..
You don't have to date your annoying cousin....
Remember, there's always a nice state school
or maybe even community college.....
In all seriousness, I did feel very bad for Jude--to a point.
However, if titles were honest, I think the title of this book would be "Jude the very long story about denied college admissions and courting Sue Bridehead, the official queen of mixed signals, with some extra tragedy along the way."
Am I evil because I sort of rooted for Arabella in the end????

One of the earliest Classic books I ever read, when I was 16. More than a decade later, I recall several moments of the book. Jude has kept growing within me for all these years. A book that does not revolve around a "larger than world character", but rather a normal ordinary individual and his life. It is a story that will never leave you, and also make you a good individual too if you can just relate with Jude and his life.
Jude The Obscure, what a beautifully written book. If you’re into rainbows, glitter and fluffy dogs this book really is not for you.
This book is going to stick with me for a long while including the phrase ‘because we are too menny’ such a sad and miserable story which really made me sob, I think this is the only book I have read that made me feel this way. But absolutely beautiful all the same. I thoroughly enjoyed it
