After her husband is injured in World War I, an English woman begins a
torrid love affair with a gamekeeper in this classic novel, now a film
on Netflix. Once banned in several countries, D. H. Lawrence’s
lyric and sensual final novel is one of the major works of fiction of
the twentieth century. It is filled with scenes of intimate beauty
that explore 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
Chatterley’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.
Praise for Lady Chatterley’s Lover and D. H. Lawrence “Nobody
concerned with the novel in our century can afford not to read
it.”—Lawrence Durrell, author of the Alexandria Quarte “The
greatest imaginative novelist of our generation.” —E. M. Forster,
author of Howards End
