Tess, the young and lovely heroine of Hardy’s classic tale, knows instinctively that the path she is choosing is the wrong one. But, a child of her times, what can she do but follow the dictates of her family?
Against the lovely background of the English countryside, Thomas Hardy sets his tale of seduction and betrayal as Tess, his beautiful heroine, speeds to her destruction.
Lusted after by one man, set on a pedestal by another, Thomas Hardy’s lovely heroine Tess is betrayed by both. Full of images of light and shade, Tess of the d’Urbervilles makes splendid listening in a tale that is both passionate and tender.
作者简介
Thomas Hardy was born in 1840 in Dorchester, Dorset. He enrolled as a student in King’s College, London, but never felt at ease there, seeing himself as socially inferior. This preoccupation with society, particularly the declining rural society, featured heavily in Hardy’s novels, with many of his stories set in the fictional county of Wessex. Since his death in 1928, Hardy has been recognised as a significant poet, influencing The Movement poets in the 1950s and 1960s.
