《더버빌가의 테스》 혹은 줄여서 테스는 영국 작가 토머스 하디의 소설로 기존의 사회적 인습과 편견에 과감하게 도전했던 토머스 하디의 문제의식이 가장 잘 드러난 작품이다. 하디는 지속적으로 기독교 문화와 가치관의 편협성에 대항하면서 여성의 성을 긍정적으로 제시한다. 특히 성적 충동은 모든 자연물이 가진 것이며, 기독교의 윤리로 억압될 수 없는 것임을 분명히 한다.
I'm not one to read a lot of the classics, in fact I feel guilty for reading a lot of the "pop" books that are put out, but hey, I read what I want. That being said, I loved this book. I thought it was a really great tragedy and wasn't dry, like I find a lot of classics to be. I couldn't put this book down and mourned with all the characters. It inspired me to download a few more classics and see how I manage them.
