Review
After disastrous first marriages, Jude Fawley and Sue Bridehead find love which Sue is reluctant to tarnish by marriage, a decision for which society cruelly marginalises them. Through the doomed trajectory of their lives, Hardy sympathetically explores the fault lines in Victorian attitudes to marriage and in the couple's vain attempts to sustain their 'highest and purest love'. --Rachel Redford, The Oldie
