«Three Novellas» is a collection of three short novels by D. H. Lawrence, published by Penguin Books in paperback (256 pages, in English).
The three stories mix psychological tension and different settings: «The Ladybird» explores the inner power of a wounded German aristocrat; «The Fox» narrates a young man's intrusion into the lives of two women on a farm; «The Captain's Doll» is a lighter tale about infidelity and indecision in occupied Germany.
The back cover quotes D. H. Lawrence, who wrote from Sicily in 1922 when sending the manuscript of the book's three stories.
For readers of early twentieth-century British fiction and short psychological tales.
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.
