Q

Analysis of Car Darch

A

-Car Darch is a foil to Tess,she’s bold,assertive and openly sensual unlike Tess’s innocence and quiet dignity
-She has also been exploited by Alec.Tess is pure and victimised whilst Car is worldly and unashamed reflecting society’s double standards on female sexuality
-Car exemplifies what Tess could become due to Alec as they are the same class,a woman scorned for her sexual history
-Despite this Alec the true predator remains thriving
