Quoted from the back of the book:
The Return of the Native is widely regarded as the most representative of Hardy's novels with the dismal presence and menacing beauty of Egdon Heath reaching out to touch the lives and fate of all who dwell on it. The central figure is the returning "native" Clym Yeobright and his love for the beautiful but capricious Eustacia Vye. As character after character is driven to self-destruction the presence of the Heath becomes all-embracing, while Clym becomes a travelling preacher in an attempt to assuage his guilt.
