Inhaltsangabe
THE RETURN OF THE NATIVE is, perhaps, the darkest of Thomas Hardy’s popular novels. It is a story of deep love and devastating betrayal, of earnest ambitions and selfish deeds. Clym Yeobright is the “native son.” His “return” is from Paris, where his career as a successful diamond merchant has left him unfulfilled. Clym meets and marries the beautiful Eustacia Vye. He aims for the simple life of a country schoolteacher; she yearns for a return to the cosmopolitan life she once knew.
