About the Author
The son of a miner, the prolific novelist, poet, and travel writer David Herbert Lawrence was born in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, in 1885. He attended Nottingham University and found employment as a schoolteacher. His first novel, The White Peacock, was published in 1911, the same year his beloved mother died and he quit teaching after contracting pneumonia. The next year Lawrence published Sons and Lovers and ran off to Germany with Frieda Weekley, his former tutor’s wife. His masterpieces The Rainbow and Women in Love were completed in quick succession, but the first was suppressed as indecent and the second was not published until 1920. Lawrence’s lyrical writings challenged convention, promoting a return to an ideal of nature where sex is seen as a sacrament. In 1928 Lawrence’s final novel, Lady Chatterley’s Lover, was banned in England and the United States for indecency. He died of tuberculosis in 1930 in Venice.

Very Good in Wrappers. 0451525299. Introduction By Louise DeSalvo. 522 pages. paperback. CE2529. keywords: Signet Classic Paperback Literature England 20th Century. DESCRIPTION - 'She saw in the rainbow the earth's new architecture, the old brittle corruption of houses and factories swept away, the world built up in a living fabric of Truth, fitting to the over - arching heaven. ' Set in the rural in midlands of England, D. H. Lawrence's THE RAINBOW explores the lives of three generations of the Brangwen family, conveying how their rural existence is gradually but profoundly changed by the influx of industry and urbanism. But it is young Ursula Brangwen, discovering herself through her sexual awakening, who becomes the focus of Lawrence's classic work, which was banned by court order when it was first published in London in 1915. This edition reprints that original, unexpurgated text. Using both religious and metaphysical imagery, Lawrence stunningly evokes the erotic lives of his characters. In the union of Tom and Lydia, Anita and Will, and in Ursula's passionate relationships with a Polish soldier and her school mistress, Lawrence exposes the complex dynamics of marriage and physical love - inevitably a sexual tug - of - war that is both formidable and inescapable. A brilliantly rendered work of art, Lawrence's THE RAINBOW is a masterpiece of modern fiction - one that is both visionary and prophetic. inventory #33052. Seller Inventory # z33052
