D. H. Lawrence, the Writer and His Work

A study of one of this century's most controversial writers. Lawrence's prolific achievements rank him as novelist, poet, playwright, essayist, travel writer, translator, and critic. The topics he dealt with in his fiction--sexual relationships, industrialism society, fascism--and the candor with which he presented them gave rise to storms of protest, but broke the ground for the emergence of the modernist age.--From book jacket.
