Chosen by Anne Michaels as her Orange Inheritance. This Orange
Inheritance Edition of Tess of the D'Urbervilles is published in
association with the Orange Prize for Fiction.
Books shape our lives and transform the way we see ourselves and
each other. The best books are timeless and continue to be relevant
generation after generation. Vintage Classics asked the winners of
The Orange Prize for Fiction which books they would pass onto the
next generation and why. Anne Michaels chose Tess of the
D'Urbervilles.
Tess is an innocent young girl until the day she goes to visit her
rich 'relatives', the D'Urbervilles. Her encounter with her
manipulative cousin, Alec, leads her onto a path that is beset with
suffering and betrayal. When she falls in love with another man,
Angel Clare, Tess sees a potential escape from her past, but only
if she can tell him her shameful secret.
