Summary
Moving to the town of Christminster where he finds work as a stonemason, Jude Fawley meets and falls in love with Sue Bridehead, a freethinking 'New Woman'. Jude and Sue decide to live together, but are shunned by society and poverty soon threatens to ruin them. Hardy's last novel caused a public furore when it was first published, with its fearless and challenging exploration of class and sexual relationships
