Description: Tess of the D'urbervilles, Paperback by Hardy, Thomas; Grindle, Juliet (EDT); Gatrell, Simon (EDT); Boumelha, Penny (INT), ISBN 0199537054, ISBN-13 9780199537051, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Young Tess Durbeyfield attempts to restore her familys fortunes by claiming their connection with the aristocratic dUrbervilles. But Alec dUrberville is a rich wastrel who seduces her and makes her life miserable. When Tess meets Angel Clare, she is offered true love and happiness, but
her past catches up with her and she faces an agonizing moral choice.
Hardys indictment of societys double standards, and his depiction of Tess as "a pure woman," caused controversy in his day and has held the imagination of readers ever since. Hardy thought it his finest novel, and Tess the most deeply felt character he ever created. This unique critical text
is taken from the authoritative Clarendon edition, which is based on the manuscript collated with all Hardys subsequent revisions.
