Tess
of
the
D'urbervilles
When
this
book
was
first
published
in
1891 it
caused
a
public
outcry
because
it
was
regarded
as
immoral
and
pessimistic
and
it
focused
on
the
hypocrisy
of
Victorian
prudery.
This
book
is
fine
and
in
as
new
condition.
It
appears
to
have
never
been
read.
Included
in
the
book
are
beautiful
pastel
illustrations
by
Gene
Sparkman.
