Navigating the intricacies of Victorian society, Ethelberta manages to keep her lower-class origins a secret while juggling several suitors, each representing a different aspect of wealth, class, and social ambition. Hardy explores themes of identity, class mobility, and the sacrifices required for success, creating a rich narrative that combines romance with sharp social critique.
