Produktbeschreibung

D.H. Lawrence's third novel and one of his most beloved, Sons and Lovers is considered the author's most autobiographical book, following the life of Paul Morel. Paul is an emerging young artist born to a mother who married for passion and came to regret it. Both Paul and his brother William are in their mother's thrall to the point where they find it difficult to detach and pursue romance for themselves. The depictions of their liaisons resulted in charges of obscenity being leveled against Lawrence. Ultimately, however, Sons and Lovers came to be regarded as a masterpiece and has been adapted for film and television several times.

Autorenporträt

An English novelist, poet, playwright, literary critic, and painter, D. H. Lawrence is best known for his novels Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, Women in Love, and Lady Chatterley's Lover. Writing in the period leading up to and following the First World War, Lawrence's work explores the nature of personal and sexual relationships in light of industrialization and the new culture of modernity. Persecuted for his strong opinions, Lawrence spent the second part of his career in an exile he referred to as his "savage pilgrimage,” while his work continued to be censored and misrepresented, resulting in the sensational obscenity trial of Lady Chatterley's Lover. Lawrence died in 1930 and is considered to be a visionary thinker and significant representative of modernism in English literature.
