With its four-letter words and its explicit descriptions of sexual intercourse, "Lady Chatterley`s Lover" is the novel with which D.H.Lawrence is most often associated. First published privately in Florence in 1928, it became a world-wide best-seller when Penguin Books successfully resisted an attempt by the British Director of Public Prosecutions to prevent them publishing an unexpurgated edition. The famous "Lady Chatterley trial" heralded the sexual revolution of the coming decades and signalled the defeat of Establishment prudery. Yet Lawrence himself was hardly a liberationist and the conservatism of many aspects of his novel would later lay it open to attacks from the political avant-garde and from feminists. The story of how the...

Soon after its publication Lady Chatterley`s Lover (1928) became notorious for its story of the physical (and emotional) relationship between a working class man and an upper class woman, its explicit descriptions of sex, and its use of then-unprintable words. This last of Lawrence`s novels reflects his belief that men and women must overcome the deadening restrictions of industrialized society.

The explosive passion of Connie and Mellor`s relationship...
The story of Constance Chatterley\'s sexual awakening through her affair with Mellors the gamekeeper has remained one of the most controversial novels of the twentieth century. Frustrated and ensnared by her marriage to Clifford Chatterley, an invalid, Constance is deeply unhappy and unfulfilled. Her relationship with Mellors rekindles her sexual feelings and brings her back to life. She decides, however, to leave England to live with her sister Hilda and, though pregnant, she finds her own form of personal freedom. Unpublished in Britain until 1960 following the notorious trial, Lady Chatterley\'s Lover is still considered to be an unsurpassed celebration of sexual love that broke new ground in its frankness and candour.

Роман английского писателя Дэвида Герберта Лоуренса (1885-1930) «Любовник леди Чаттерлей» был написан в 1928 году и тогда же был запрещен, так как обращение к интимной стороне жизни эпатировало современников. «Я всегда стремился показывать интимные отношения между мужчиной и женщиной как нечто естественное и чрезвычайно важное, а не просто постыдное и второстепенное…» (Д. Г. Лоуренс) В книге представлен...
The last and most famous of `s novels, Lady Chatterley`s Lover was published in 1928 and banned in England and the United States as pornographic. While sexually tame by today`s standards, the book is memorable for better reasons - Lawrence`s masterful and lyrical prose, and a vibrant story that takes us bodily into the world of its characters. As the novel opens, Constance Chatterley finds herself trapped in an unfulfilling marriage to a rich aristocrat whose war wounds have left him paralyzed and impotent. After a brief but unsatisfying affair with a playwright, Lady Chatterley enjoys an extremely passionate relationship with the gamekeeper on the family estate, Oliver Mellors. As Lady Chatterley falls in love and conceives a child with...

Lyric and sensual, Lawrence`s last novel is one of the major works of fiction of the twentieth century. Filled with scenes of intimate beauty, explores the emotions of a lonely woman trapped in a sterile marriage and her growing love for the robust gamekeeper of her husband`s estate. The most controversial of Lawrence`s books, "Lady Chatterly`s Lover" joyously affirms the author`s vision of individual regeneration through sexual love. The book`s power, complexity, and psychological intricacy make this a completely original work — a triumph of passion, an erotic celebration of life.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lady Chatterley's Lover is a novel by D. H. Lawrence, first published in 1928. The first edition was printed in Florence, Italy; it could not be published openly in the United Kingdom until 1960. (A private edition was issued by Inky Stephensen's Mandrake Press in 1929). The book soon became notorious for its story of the physical relationship between a working-class man and an aristocratic woman, its explicit descriptions of sex, and its use of (at the time) unprintable words. The story is said to have originated from events in Lawrence's own unhappy domestic life, and he took inspiration for the settings of the book from Eastwood in Nottinghamshire where he lived for a while. According to...

Catherine Carswell was one of the most loyal and dependable of D. H. Lawrence`s friends. When he died in 1930, with the controversy over "Lady Chatterley`s Lover" still raging, the abuse heaped on him prompted her into writing this warm and intimate account of his life. "The Savage Pilgrimage" traces Lawrence`s troubled existence back to his working-class origins and gives a particularly moving and intimate description of his life during the First World War after "The Rainbow" had been banned, no-one would publish his work, and he became desperately poor. This is an essential book for anyone interested in the life of one of Britain`s greatest and most controversial writers and includes details of Lawrence`s everyday behaviour, and...

This title includes an introduction and notes by Jeff Wallace, University of Glamorgan. These stories of myth and resurrection, of uncanny events and violent impulse, were with one exception written and published in the latter half of the 1920s, coinciding with the composition of Lawrence`s controversial masterpiece "Lady Chatterley`s Lover". At this time Lawrence declared himself to be `really awful sick of writing`; yet here we find some of his most beautiful, hauntingly melancholy fictions. In struggling to escape from their thwarted lives and to achieve human `tenderness`, the characters embody and continue the major preoccupations of Lawrence`s work as a whole. "Love Among the Haystacks" provides an early illustration of the...

D.H. Lawrence D.H. Lawrence has been acclaimed and damned for his extremely honest novel of love. Lady Chatterley`s Lover. Thousands have read that once - banned book. Not so with The Fox.

Stephen Crane "Maggie: A Girl of the Streets" tells of misery life in the slum districts of New York. The story was published in 1893 under a pseudonym. Today, most critics look upon "Maggie" as a classic of the literature of social protest. To be sure, the autor of this true-to-life portrayal of rotten society...
