Summary: The most sensitive story about the feelings of a young woman
Review: First published in 1891, Tess... is a very sad book: a young girl's life is slowly but surely destroyed -not by her enemies, but by the people who say they love her.
Rating: 
Summary: tess of the d'urbervilles
Review: Good lord this is bad! Tess is always sorrowful over something or another, the description makes up at least half the book, and the plot moves along at a snails pace. If you find reading about a girl's sensitive feelings (to the point of wanting to attack her), and reading extreme amounts of things like milking cows, harvesting grain, walking places, sleeping, and being pathetic, then this is the book for you. Otherwise, avoid this book like the plague.

Summary: Interestingly verbose!
Review: It was unique, sad, and brutal. Some parts were too exaaggerated and Tess's maudlin made it all worse! The story was good but could have been written in half as many words!
Rating: 
Summary: Crap
Review: This book is terrible. It shows the way of male dominated society and of malevolent fate in a good way, the problem is the book is far too long; 500 pages of Hardy is too much.
