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.

“十一月的一个礼拜六下午,已近黄昏,这片广袤无边、莽莽苍苍的埃顿荒原,正在逐时逐刻变得昏暗起来。头顶那片青天已漫起了一片空濛的灰云,这片灰云就像一顶帐篷,罩住了整个荒原。” 在《还乡》的开篇,哈代就用灰云笼罩下的埃顿荒原为小说的悲剧性抹上了浓浓的宿命色彩。当...

哈代的小说总是把主角的经历写的很凄惨。《苔丝》中苔丝的受辱导致的两人的长久的分离与折磨;《裘德》里裘德的肺结核病,以及孩子们灾难性的死亡。这无疑都是要把人彻底击跨啊! 《还乡》的前半段舒缓平静,到中程突然巨浪一个接着一个,矛盾终于完全的展现在了眼前。 ...
