Abstract (2. Language): 
Herein this article, a critical study of Thomas Hardy as a novelist has been discussed. Thomas Hardy was born on June, 1840, in the village of Upper Bockhamton, three mile away from Dorsetshire. His father was a master mason from whom he derived his love of music and his introduction to architecture. From his mother he inherited his inclination towards literature. The thatched cottage in which his parents lived stood on the western edge of Puddleton Heath, “a vast tract of unenclosed wild”, which was to become a powerful influence upon his mind and to figure in his novels as Egdon Heath.
