Summary

Summary

Lady Chatterley’s husband returns from the War paralyzed from the waist down. Frustrated by his attitudes as much as his disability, she begins a love affair with the gamekeeper, Mellors. She realizes that to be fully alive she must live the life of the body as well as the mind, but in doing so she angers the conventions of her day.

Banned for over thirty years for the explicit nature of its language and descriptions of sex, Lady Chatterley’s Lover also exposes the dehumanization of the mechanical age and underlines the profound power of tenderness.

Author Bio: D. H. Lawrence

David Herbert Lawrence (1885–1930), novelist, short-story writer, poet, critic, playwright, and essayist, was one of the most important and controversial figures of twentieth-century English literature. His works confront the dehumanizing effects of modernity and industrialization and are notable for their passionate intensity and for a sensuality that centers on the erotic. Though his opinions earned him enemies, persecution, and censorship during his lifetime, he is now recognized as an artistic visionary.
