«Lady Chatterley’s Lover» is D. H. Lawrence's classic novel, published by Arcturus in paperback (303 pages, in English).
Constance Chatterley lives an empty marriage with Sir Clifford, who was left paralyzed after World War I. Seeking refuge in the solitude of the estate, she begins a relationship with Oliver Mellors, the gamekeeper, which leads her to question the social conventions of interwar England. The novel interweaves romantic desire with a critique of class rigidity and moral repression.
The work was originally published in 1928 and was censored in the United Kingdom and the United States; the uncensored version did not reach the United States until 1959.
For readers of classics of English literature and of novels that explore sexuality and class differences.
David Herbert Lawrence was an English novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright, literary critic, travel writer, essayist, and painter. His modernist works reflect on modernity, social alienation and industrialisation, while championing sexuality, vitality and instinct. Four of his most famous novels – Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), Women in Love (1920), and Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928) – were the subject of censorship trials for their radical portrayals of romance, sexuality, and use of explicit language.
