Tess of the d'Urbervilles info
The story of Tess Durbeyfield, a low-born country girl whose family find they have noble connections. In 2003, the novel was listed at number 26 on the BBC's survey The Big Read. Scandalous when first published in part because it challenged the sexual mores of Hardy's day. One of the most important works of English literature. Brilliantly read by Mary Sarah Agliotta.
