David Herbert Lawrence was an English writer of novels, plays, poetry and essays. Lawrence was born to a large working class family, his father was a miner and his mother was a schoolmistress. Lawrence based some of his early works off his family life which often featured problems between his parents.
Lawrence was not afraid to give ink to his opinions, some of which created enemies in his country. Eventually this led to much of his work being censored or misrepresented. Lawrence and his wife Frieda Weekley would eventually leave England soon after the end of World War I. Lawrence would only briefly return to England and mostly traveled for the remainder of his life. As Lawrence’s health began to fail, he and his wife finally settled in a villa near Florence, Italy. Some of Lawrence’s best known works are Sons and Lovers, Women in Love, and Lady Chatterley’s Lover, the last of which was published just 2 years before his death.
This edition of Daughters of the Vicar includes a Table of Contents and images of Lawrence, his life, and his works.
