The Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy – April 2012

We met on the 2^nd April 2012 to discuss ‘The Return of The Native’ by Thomas Hardy.  The group had a mixed response to this novel. Some of us loved the detailed descriptions of people and places. Giving the location, Egdon Heath, a realism.     While some found the wordiness tedious and interfered with the plot itself. 

Having proved ourselves to be well read, reflective, book worms, we have chosen something light hearted as our next read. During April we will read ‘Round Britain with a Fridge’ by Tony Hawks.

We will next meet on Tuesday 1^st May 2012 at 7.30pm. As usual at The Drum.
