It has been years since I read Thomas Hardy, so I was thinking about re-reading them all when I discovered that I had missed this one the first time around. After finishing it, my first thought was, "With a friend like Sue, Jude didn't need any enemies." I was a bit appalled at the characterization of the two main women in the book. Arabella, self-centered, manipulative, and sensual, was hard enough to take. Not that I haven't known a few women like that myself. Sue, self-centered, manipulative, and nearly frigid, was almost impossible. Poor Jude never got the opportunity to know a typical woman, most of whom are caring, supportive partners in a relationship rather than parasites. In 1895, the role of women was to take care of the home and bear the children, which was a somewhat parasitical relationship, I admit, but I got so frustrated with Sue that it was difficult to finish the book. My second thought was that Hardy must not have an affinity for children any more than he does with women, since Jude's four children (well, three for the most part) were so poorly sketched. The reader never even learned their sex, except for the oldest, Little Jude. But then I remembered that Hardy had done a fine job of portraying Jude as a child, so I am stumped as to why he didn't develop Jude's children more when they had a short but important part in the story. My third thought was, why this title? Jude the Idiot or Jude the Susceptible or Jude the Naive might have been more apt. Now if the title had been Little Jude the Obscure, it would have made more sense, since I never could get a handle on Little Jude. Totally obscure. Maybe obscure meant something different in 1895? Having said all that, I had no sooner finished the first chapter than I gave a sigh of pure satisfaction. Hardy's writing is a pleasure at any time. So it looks like I'll be re-reading the others. As I recall, I won't look for a happy ending, however. Also, I thought Hardy showed remarkable insight in claiming that 50 years in the future it would be commonplace for women and men to co-habit without benefit of marriage. Since he was only 15 - 20 years premature in his guess, I was impressed.
