About the book
A poor country girl sent to claim kinship with a wealthy family is wronged, judged, and pursued by a fate that will not let her go. Hardy's fierce, heartbreaking novel of a 'pure woman' condemned by a hypocritical society scandalized Victorian readers and endures as one of the great tragedies in English.
