Description
Jude Fawley's hopes of a university education are lost when he is trapped into marrying the earthy Arabella. This decision sets him on a path that will lead to hardship and heartache, but also to a profound exploration of class and sexual relationships. In his search for meaning and connection, Jude finds work as a stonemason in Christminster and meets his cousin Sue Bridehead, a sensitive and freethinking woman who challenges the conventions of her time. Their relationship is marked by poverty and social ostracism, but also by a deep and abiding love. This edition of Jude the Obscure presents the unbowdlerized text of the first volume edition of 1895, alongside a list for further reading, appendices, and a glossary.
