The Return of the Native and The Woodlanders are generally regarded as Hardy's masterpieces; but two novels of our own day, Tess of the D'Ubervilles and Jude the Obscure , are better expressions of Hardy's literary art and of his gloomy philosophy. Aside from their intrinsic value, Stevenson's novels are interesting in this respect, that they mark a return to the pure romanticism of Walter Scott.
Hardy's "Tess of the D'Ubervilles": "Amid the oozing fatness and warm ferments of Froom Vale, at a season when the rush of juices could almost be heard below the hiss of fertilization, it was impossible that the most fanciful love should not grow passionate. The ready hearts existing there were impregnated by their surroundings."
