About Jude the Obscure
Jude the Obscure tells the story of the title character, a poor stonemason who dreams of becoming an educated man and attending university. However, his ambitions are ultimately frustrated, as are his dreams of happiness with the woman he loves, as their relationship is condemned by those around them.
The novel met with generally negative reviews when it was first published, with at least one reviewer dubbing it “Jude the Obscene” due to its sexual content and rejection of Victorian moral values; however, this early reception did not hinder its later popularity, and it is still widely read and studied today.
