Tess of the d’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
When Tess Durbeyfield is driven by family poverty to claim kinship with the wealthy D’Urbervilles and seek a portion of their family fortune, meeting her ‘cousin’ Alec proves to be her downfall. A very different man, Angel Clare, seems to offer her love and salvation, but Tess must choose whether to reveal her past or remain silent in the hope of a peaceful future.
The meeting will be on Friday January 15 at 6:30 pm at Library Mestra Maria Antònia, Torredembarra or via online service. Get in touch for details.
