Thomas Hardy 
Jude the Obscure 

Jude Fawley’s dream of going to university is dashed when he is forced into marriage with a woman who quickly abandons him. He later falls in love with his cousin, Sue Bridehead, and the two decide to live together rather than marry for form’s sake. They are shunned by society and soon face destitution. Completed in 1895, Hardy’s final novel was controversial for its bold take on sexual relationships.Sayre Street Books offers the world’s greatest literature in easy to navigate, beautifully designed digital editions.
