Tess is one of the most compassionately written characters of late-19th century literature (at least that I know of). Seeing as she is female and created by a male author, her complexity belies the time period in which she is written (again, only that I know of). The heartbreak and hypocrisy she suffers, although archaic, is real and all the more tangible. The story left me with cold satisfaction, and I’ll remember it always.
