Tess of the D'urbervilles

About This Novel

Hardy's most outstanding work and one of the greatest works of English literature. The novel takes the heroine Tess's experience as the main line, describing the conflict between the beautiful poetic image and the surrounding gloomy reality, and vividly and concretely describes the disintegration of the small-scale peasant economy after capitalism invaded the British countryside at the end of the 19th century and the painful process of individual farmers heading towards poverty and bankruptcy. At the same time, Hardy also showed strong pessimism in his works.
