Women In Love Wordsworth Classics by D. H. Lawrence

Synopsis

Lawrence`s finest most mature novel initially met with disgust and incomprehension In the love affairs of two sisters Ursula with Rupert and Gudrun with Gerald critics could only see a sorry tale of sexual depravity and philosophical obscurity Women in Love is however a profound response to a whole cultural crisis The `progress` of the modern industrialised world had led to the carnage of the First World War What then did it mean to call ourselves `human`? On what grounds could we place ourselves above and beyond the animal world? What are the definitive forms of our relationships - love marriage family friendship - really worth? And how might they be otherwise? Without directly referring to the war Women in Love explores these questions with restless energy As a sequel to The Rainbow the novel develops experimental techniques which made Lawrence one of the most important writers of the Modernist movement --> Genre: Literary Fiction Classics
