Book Reviews of The Return of the Native (Cover to Cover Classics)

Book Review: A Modern Day Soap Opera
Summary: 4 Stars

The Return of a Native, a fabolously written novel by the late Thomas Hardy, is a tale of forbidden love between Eustacia and Wildeve. Although the rather long descriptions of the heath tended to drag, the story in itself is tragic. In the beginning Eustacia and Wildeve were secretly seeing each other, until Wildeve marries Thomasin. Eustacia, desperately seeking a better life, marries Clym. This is the true beginning of the story. Hardy was ahead of his time writing this novel with the traditional twists of a modern soap opera. A tale of forbidden love, constant longing for better things, and mere gossip makes this story quite a read!!!!
