Return of the Native, Character Watcher, Pd. 3
The character that I would like to look at is Thomasin Yeobright. She is the niece of Mrs. Yeobright and had been away from her home because she was to be married. Her aunt did not approve of the marriage. After she changed the location of where she would like to be married on the day of her wedding, her groom forgot to get a new licence for the new location. So it seems to me that Thomasin is a spoiled girl, and always has to get what she wants. Although the fact that they have to postpone their wedding is embarrassing, why are they trying to hide it from the rest of the towns folk? They planned to get married the following day, so it really shouldn’t be such an ordeal. Why is Thomasin along with her aunt so intent on hiding this from everyone else?
