When Tess Durbeyfield is driven by family poverty to claim kinship with the wealthy D`Urbervilles and seek a portion of their family fortune, meeting her `cousin` Alec proves to be her downfall. A very different man, Angel Clare, seems to offer her love and salvation, but Tess must choose whether to reveal her past or remain silent in the hope of a peaceful future. With its sensitive depiction of the wronged Tess and powerful criticism of social convention, Tess of the D`Urbervilles is one of the most moving and poetic of Hardy`s novels.

"There is something more to be said in fiction than has been said about the shaded side of a well-known catastrophe." - T. Hardy In "Tess of the d'Urbervilles," which now in its second century of existence still attracts a wide audience, author Thomas Hardy took a common Victorian moral issue of ruined innocence and displayed it in a light that caused some controversy at the time. This analytical study of his classic novel takes a pagan perspective, highlighting its similarity to ancient Greek and Celtic mythology, looking closer at the religious criticism and the relationship between the story's heroine, Tess, and the tenderly portrayed natural world so full of potence and symbolism.

Pride & Prejudice Jane Austen constructed Pride & Prejudice, with wit, social precision and an irresistible heroine. Beginning with one of the most famous sentences in English Literature, it is a perfect ironic novel of manners.

Jane Eyre Charlotte Bronte`s poor, plain, but plucky heroine, possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage. She is forced to battle against a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. Wuthering Heights Emily Bronte`s tale is a...
