Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A bleak, unrelenting tale of poverty and loss, Lawrence's expertly crafted novella chillingly examines man's increasing inability to love and be loved. Looking for acceptance from his new congregation, the Reverend Ernest Lindley cannot ignore the fact that his parishioners are far from welcoming. Rather than confront such hostility, the Lindleys instead become ever more isolated: he "pale and miserable and neutral;" she "bitter and beaten by fear." And having raised their children to be similarly dispassionate, it seems inevitable that their daughters should enter loveless marriages. While Mary becomes the dutiful wife, younger sister Louisa vows to experience love for herself-little knowing that such desires will divide an already broken family. Most famous for Lady Chatterley's Lover, D.H. Lawrence is universally regarded as one of the foremost figures of early 20th-century literature.
