Originally released as five books, in classic tragic form, a sixth, tacking on a "happy ending," was added by editor and public pressure. When they come together, the Heath will come apart. He is satisfied returning from Paris to the simple comfort of home. Our supposed hero, Clym, is modest, steady, plain, moral, and dutiful. She burns every life she touches, never able to find the mad love and exotic world she dreams of. Our heroine, Eustacia, is proud, passionate, cruel, fickle, avaricious, and desperate. Nature is downright Darwinian everything boils down to survival, competition, and evolution. Instead, Hardy depicts people as small and even overwhelmed by nature. A modern and honest novel of chance and choice, faith and infidelities, this dark story asks what is free will and what is fate? What is the true nature of nature, and how do we fit together? Can we fit together?Ī tragedy set in the barren land of Edgon Heath. In fact, man doesnt live side-by-side with nature as equals at all the heath is not the friendly or romantic place that the highly-romantic language might imply. Like all of Hardy's work, The Return of the Native (1878) is passionate and controversial, with themes and sympathies beyond what a good Victorian would ever admit.
