Summary notes on Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles said to be intended for high school students. Arranged under headings such as "Four main characters (and one-sentence description of each)," "Three main settings (and one-sentence description of each)," and "One-paragraph plot outline."
COMMENT:
Clumsy, illiterate, and inaccurate notes. For example, the notes under "Two symbols and references" consit entirely of these three hopelessly confused sentences:
"The pillar with the hand-print - This pillar symbolizes Tess's guilt of adultery and murder. Alec says that it was erected by the druid's for some punishment, while others say it was a cross. Tess was arrested after sleeping by it."
