Widely regarded as Thomas Hardy's greatest work, Tess of the d'Urbervilles was first serialized in 1891 and then published as a single volume in 1892. At the time, it received mixed reviews from critics who believed it to be immoral. It is now loved worldwide and has been adapted into plays, operas, and numerous films and television series. The story of Tess Durbeyfield and her quest for fortune offers a moving glimpse into the Victorian world we left behind and remains an engaging story for contemporary readers.
