Descriere
The Most Scandalous Book of the 20th Century
Lyric and sensual, D. H. Lawrence’s novel is one of the major works of fiction of the twentieth century. Filled with scenes of intimate beauty, it explores 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 Chatterly’s Lover joyously affirms the author’s vision of individual regeneration through sexual love. The book’s power, complexity, and psychological involvments make this a completely original work — a triumph of passion and a celebration of life.
“His body was urgent against her, and she didn't have the heart anymore to fight… She was giving up… she had to lie down there under the boughs of the tree, like an animal, while he waited, standing there in his shirt, watching her with haunted eyes… He too had bared the front part of his body and she felt his naked flesh against her as he came into her.”
"One of the best novels of the century.” — LE MONDE
