Synopsis: This is the tragic story of Tess Durbeyfield, a young girl who was the virtuous victim of the rigid Victorian moral code from the time.

My Review: It took me a bit of time to get into this book and understand what was going on. I found myself checking SparkNotes to read a synopsis of the early chapters. Oddly enough, once I understood what was happening, I found that I enjoyed this book more than I had expected to. I found that the book helped me to examine my personal relationships and how I judge people.
