あらすじ

The Return of the Native is a novel by Thomas Hardy published in 1878, unfolding entirely on Egdon Heath over the course of a year. The story interweaves the lives of several characters whose choices and circumstances draw them into conflict and hard decisions. When Clym Yeobright returns from Paris, Eustacia Vye, known for her beauty and restlessness, believes he may offer a way out from the bleak isolation of the heath. Their marriage becomes a turning point that affects relationships beyond their own, as thwarted hopes, family estrangement, and misunderstandings complicate loyalties and challenge what each character wants from life.
