Women in Love

Descripción

1925. Chocolate brown boards, lettered in gilt, ruled in blind. Top spine end is in poor condition, with it starting to wear. Pages yellowed due to age with minimal underlining by prior owner. "Women in Love" chronicles the lives of three generations of Brangwens, a farming family from Nottinghamshire, whose livelihoods and relationships are affected by the industrialization of England. Lawrence originally intended the text, which he edited and revised for several years, to be titled "The Sisters," but eventually divided it into Women in Love and its prequel The Rainbow (1915). Because of the controversies surrounding "The Rainbow", censored for Lawrence's unapologetic descriptions of the characters' sexual desires, "Women in Love" was initially rejected by 'almost every publisher in London.' Although Lawrence completed the manuscript in 1916, "Women in Love" was first published privately in New York in November 1920. N° de ref. del artículo 503
