schani96 's review for:

Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
5.0

I was in love with Tess by the end of the book and feel sure that Hardy was.

She really had a shitty deal but remained true to herself; a poignant contrast to the stifling conventions and empty moral codes of the late Victorian era in which she lived.

Its message is timeless. Well done Hardy!
