Tess of the Durbervilles (Enriched Classics (Washington Square)) Tapa blanda - 1998

Información de la editorial

At the time of its publication in 1891, "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" was scorned by readers for what was then considered its indictment of Victorian society and its unconventional heroine, Tess Durbeyfield. Now considered one of the major classic novels of nineteenth-century literature, "Tess" is the compelling story of an extraordinary woman and her tragic destiny -- a brilliant, transcendent work of compassion and courage by one of the finest English novelists, Thomas Hardy.
