Tess of the D'Urbevilles by Thomas Hardy




One of the members of my book club suggested that we read a "classic" and it was time for me to pick the book.  I chose this because I recall loving Thomas Hardy as a younger person (high school?) and seem to recall loving this book.

Funny thing is....as I read and ENJOYED this book very much, I didn't remember anything about the book, characters, or plot! So, did I ever read it before?  No idea! I feel certain that I DID read Jude the Obscure, so I will go back for that one now. 

I started reading the book on my iPad but then checked to see if I could get it as a audiobook and I was able to borrow from the library. I really loved listening to it. The language is so beautiful and the reader was perfect for this story.  Wonderful British accent.  Just delightful.

I am going to go back and enjoy more classics after this wonderful reading (and listening) experience!
