The Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy
Against the lowering background of Egdon Heath, fiery Eustacia Vye passes her days, wishing only for passionate love. She believes that her escape from Egdon lies in marriage to Clym Yeobright, home from Paris and discontented with his work there.
"This is the quality Hardy shares with the great writers..this setting behind the small action the terrific action of unfathomed nature."
--D. H. Lawrence
