Description
Tess of the D’Urbervilles is a masterpiece in the well-known “Wessex novels” by Hardy, an outstanding British realist writer in the nineteenth century. The novel describes the unfortunate fate of a pure girl. The protagonist Tess was a beautiful peasant girl and was forced to become pregnant due to the coercion of the son of her master. From then on, this shameful fact deprived her of the right to accept true love, resulting in being abandoned by her husband on the wedding night. Later, she returned to the arms of the young master in desperation. Unexpectedly, at this moment, her sick nameless husband returned and searched for it. For her true love, Tess resolutely killed the young master who was living with her, and walked onto the gallows after a brief reunion with her husband.
