About the Author

D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930) was a prolific man of letters whose novels were famous for their frank depiction of human sexuality and scathing criticism of modernity.  Reviled by the literary establishment during his life, he is now regarded as one of England's greatest writers, and his novels, especially Lady Chatterley's Lover and Sons and Lovers, have been recognized as masterpieces.
