Tess

The classic that broke with the social conventions of its time, in the original version! Young Tess Durbeyfield lives in Victorian England in poverty. When her family learns that she is likely of noble descent, Tess is destined to change the fate of the Durbeyfields for the better. In her search for a place in life, the young woman encounters two very different men: Alec d’Urberville and Angel Clare, who will influence her destiny from then on. Tess quickly confronts the rigid social conventions of her time and must realize that her future does not lie solely in her hands. Ten elaborate extras and a sensitive design make this book a unique experience that deeply immerses readers in the oppressive fate of its protagonists and takes them on an emotional journey. A unique deluxe edition of the classic: with title label, embossing, foil stamping, and ribbon bookmark. With 10 intricately designed extras: a map of Wessex, an envelope with contents, and much more. Beautifully illustrated by Marjolein Bastin.
