Sons and Lovers (World Digital Library Edition) [electronic resource]

Lawrence, D. H. (David Herbert), 1885-19302002
eBook
Sons and Lovers is said to be ostensibly the first English novel with an authentic working-class background. Readers will find the descriptions of the relationship between the hero Paul Morel and his mother, and his other relationships with two quite differing women, absolutely fascinating. A tragedy of work and love, the novel is a psychological insight into Lawrence’s own life and a wonderful landmark of autobiographical serious fiction.

Biography/History:
David Herbert Lawrence, novelist and poet, was born on September 11, 1885 at Eastwood in Nottinghamshire, England. His novels were often banned for their sexually explicit content, thereby making him the center of a famous court case in both the United Kingdom and America. Lawrence’s honesty and insights into life and experiences has kept his work to the forefront of the literary world since his death on March 2, 1930 at Vence, near Nice, France.
