Women In Love Wordsworth Classics Description

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-> this Paperback book the publishing house is Wordsworth Editions in 1992 it has 508 pages booksalvation have grade it as good and Has A Few Scuffs Marks Etc Reasonable used book it will be shipped from our UK warehouse shipping is Free for UK buyers and at a reasonable charge for buyer outside the UK
