Tachada de inmoral y escandalosa en su día por tratar la sexualidad y el deseo femeninos desde un punto de vista demasiado natural y desinhibido para la época, El amante de lady Chatterley es, con toda justicia, la novela más célebre y celebrada de D.

Sullo sfondo della Grande Guerra, che scardina le famiglie allontanandone i componenti e che divide le coscienze alla luce del nuovo disordine mondiale, il caso fa incontrare nuovamente, dopo molti anni, una nobile signora inglese ed un conte tedesco, ferito e prigioniero del Paese divenuto nemico. Incontro dopo incontro, quel rapporto, dapprima superficiale, si approfondisce sempre di più; un rapporto strano, fatto di attrazione e repulsione insieme, che il lettore vede scorrere nella sua ambivalenza fino allo scioglimento finale, determinato dal ritorno dalla guerra del marito di lei.

Written in 1913, D H Lawrence's first major novel, Sons and Lovers, was the one of the earliest in the English language to explore a close-knit mining community from the inside. Lawrence's semi-autobiographical novel, set in the Nottinghamshire coal fields, is renowned for its accurate portrayal of working-class life and for its use of local dialect. It traces emotional conflicts through the protagonist, Paul Morel, and his suffocating relationships with his over possessive mother, and the women he falls in love with.

Publicada en Florencia a cuenta del autor en 1928 y prohibida en Gran Bretaña hasta 1960, cuando fue objeto de un famoso juicio por obscenidad, El amante de lady Chatterley está considerada hoy en día una de las grandes novelas del siglo XX. En sus páginas, D. H.

La obra prohibida por revelar hipocresias. Cuando Lawrence publico en 1928 su ultima novela, desato la furia de quienes se sentian aludidos por ella y que se apresuraron a declarar la obra como inmoral y a prohibirla.

The story of the physical relationship between the aristocratic protagonist Constance Chatterley and gamekeeper Oliver Mellors - which occurs right under the nose of her wheelchair-bound husband, Clifford.

Yet possibly the most important theme is the individual’s need for physical as well as intellectual satisfaction.

"The Undying Man" is a slightly unfinished piece, drawing its inspiration from Shelley's Frankenstein about the creation of life and the fear of death. It is interesting to speculate where Lawrence would have gone with the story, but the sound of broken glass is the most likely ending.
