A review by tw1tch
The Return of the Native, by Thomas Hardy

3.0

Look, this book opens up with a chapter long discription of the setting (the heath). That should give you some idea of how this book's pacing is. I think I've literally watched paint dry faster then Hardy gets to his point.

However, with that being said, it's a good story and it's a good intro to Hardy and it makes Tess of the Uberduberness look way better. Read this one, then that one, and you'll like Tess way better.
