saraubs 's review for:
Jude the Obscure
by Thomas Hardy
This was a struggle! If I hadn't been buddy reading I may have DNFd this classic. I'm sure there's historical value here, but the plot and characters make that aspect very hard to appreciate. It was miserable following Jude and there wasn't enough that I enjoyed about the prose/plotting/themes to make me want to keep reading. I really hope that the next Hardy will be more to my taste.
