Question
The author implies which of the following about Under the Greenwood Tree in relation to Hardy's other novels?
Answer: Option C
:
C
It was a close choice between (C) and (D).
“His most controlled novel, Under the Greenwood Tree, prominently exhibits two different but reconcilable impulses—a desire to be a realist-historian and a desire to be a psychologist of love—but the slight interlockings of the plot are not enough to bind the two completely together. Thus even this book splits into two distinct parts.”
He says that even this book splits into two parts. But nowhere has he said that all of hardy’s books are split into two parts. So (D) is wrong.
