Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) fue uno de los principales escritores de la Inglaterra victoriana. Sus novelas, entre las que destacan, aparte de "Tess", "El regreso del nativo" y "Jude el Oscuro", están llenas de fuerza y pasión, y suelen contraponer el medio rural con el urbano y al individuo con la sociedad que lo rodea.
