![]() Sue is a free spirit, who is constantly struggling between two opposing forces. I’ve seen her described as a fickle primadonna who plays with Jude’s feelings, but I didn’t get that impression at all. She is an idealist, who values spiritual love over physical love and thinks marriage is a hindrance rather than a support for a happy relationship. Sue, with whom Jude later falls in love, is in many ways the antithesis to Arabella. ![]() Marriage as a means to a comfortable existence is Arabella’s goal in life. She can produce fake dimples on command and is an excellent schemer, who lures Jude into marriage against his will. This single action says a lot about her character.Īrabella is practical, earthbound and unsophisticated. I thought that was quite an appropriate introduction of Arabella. ![]() Or “runs into” is probably the wrong phrase, actually Arabella catches Jude’s attention by throwing a pig’s penis at him. As a young man, Jude runs into Arabella, who is the daughter of a local pig-farmer. ![]()
