A Preface to Lawrence
Overview
Excellent introduction to one of the most imaginative novelists of the early twentieth century! Outlines his life and intellectual background and their effect on he and his writings. Explores important places and people in Joyce's life and their effect on him. Looks in detail at many of Lawrence's works, including, Sons and Lovers and The Rainbow , as well as, his shorter fiction and plays. D. H. Lawrence, criticized, censored and dismissed in his early lifetime, now stands as one of the major imaginative novelists of the early twentieth century. Clear, vivid and convincing, Gamini Salgado's introduction to the life and works of D.H. Lawrence sets the writer firmly in the context of his times. The Preface Books series approaches the work of D H Lawrence from a particular perspective which, by introducing the writer via a biographical sketch and a survey of his cultural and social influence, encourages readers to understand her work in the period and style it was written. Gamini Salgado was formerly at Exeter University and his books include Sons and Lover (Arnold), an anthology of Criticism and a number of studies of drama and prose literature.
