Book Description

The Wordsworth Classics covers a huge list of beloved works of literature in English and translations. This growing series is rigorously updated, with scholarly introductions and notes added to new titles.

The central figure of this novel is the returning "native", Clym Yeobright, and his love for the beautiful but capricious Eustacia Vye. As character after character is driven to self-destruction, the presence of Egdon Heath becomes all-embracing, while Clym becomes a preacher.

From AudioFile

Clym Yeobright, native of Egdon Heath, returns from the bright society of Paris and, as any reader of Hardy knows, all is not smooth. He is quickly taken by and marries the one woman he should not--Eustacia Vye. The suffering that follows is mitigated somewhat by the ending, but more by the mastery of Alan Rickman's reading. At the start, Rickman senses the voice for each character in Hardy's fictional world, and he maintains each character's personality throughout. He even manages to project Hardy's subtle shadings of tone with the rhythm and tempo of his narration, throwing in a song here and there because, in spite of his gloom, there is a festive strain to Hardy, as well. If you have a hard time reading this classic English writer, this is how to do it. P.E.F.

The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature

Novel by Thomas Hardy, published in 1878. The novel is set on Egdon Heath, a barren moor in the fictional Wessex in southwestern England. The native of the title is Clym Yeobright, who has returned to the area to become a schoolmaster after a successful but, in his opinion, shallow career as a jeweler in Paris. He and his cousin Thomasin exemplify the traditional way of life, while Thomasin's husband, Damon Wildeve, and Clym's wife, Eustacia Vye, long for the excitement of city life. Disappointed that Clym is content to remain on the heath, Eustacia, willful and passionate, rekindles her affair with the reckless Damon. After a series of coincidences Eustacia comes to believe that she is responsible for the death of Clym's mother. Convinced that fate has doomed her to cause others pain, Eustacia flees and is drowned (by accident or intent). Damon drowns trying to save her. In a later edition, to please his readers, Hardy made additions to his novel. Thomasin marries Diggory Venn, a humble, long-time suitor, and Clym becomes an itinerant preacher.

还乡是哈代的一部长篇小说,是哈代小说创作的中期作品,是哈代小说的一个转折点,在这部小说里,我看到了哈代在后来的悲剧小说的中一个中心思想,就是无法控制外部力量和内心思想决定着一个人的命运,并造成悲剧,《还乡》中的悲剧性命运的阴影自始自终笼罩着主要人物。整部小...

2016.7.3 悲剧,是命运的捉弄,还是人自己的罪不可避免地将自己推向死路。CLYM一样,老是明天我就去找她。两次,都晚了.E因为外界将她和CLYM放在一起,未见到他,就开始爱他,然后有了以隐藏面目的第一次相见。很浪漫。她恨这HEATH,所以代表外面世界的CLYM被她神化了。而CLYM在见识外部世界后发现这HEATH才能给他宁静,一心追求改造人。T则安于HEATH,简直觉得自己是天生的上面的一部分,没有纠结与挣扎。最终获得了安稳的幸福。现实主义小说,不描写人的内心,我觉得无法把握他们。而REDLEMAN和WILDEVE在深夜在萤火虫的光照下在石头上掷骰子赌博这一幕太美妙。还有描写这HEATH的一切,风、草、上面的月光,里面的虫、与它一样亘古。它才是这部书的主角啊!
