nallsop 's review for:
Tess of the D'Urbervilles
by Thomas Hardy
When I put this book on my "To-Read" list, I really had no idea what it was about, all I knew was that it is a classic and millions of people have read it. WHAT IN THE HECK IS THE WORLD THINKING? This is the worst story: horrible, depressing, and degrading. No amount of good writing can compensate for that!
**>Story Spoiler Alert<** Tess is poor, she works hard to try to provide for her family, she gets raped, she gets pregnant, she gets shunned, her baby dies, she feels like it is all her fault and that she is a sinner, she finally meets the love of her life, they get married, she tells him what happened to her, he leaves her for being an immoral woman, she has to resort to being her rapist's mistress to provide for her drunken father and the rest of her immediate family, she has finally had enough and kills the man who ruined her life to begin with, she is arrested and put in jail for the rest of her life.
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND CAN LIKE THIS BOOK? If you do like it, and you and I meet one day, we will have to have a LENGTHY discussion about what is wrong with you.
