Classic Editions The Complete Novels of D. H. Lawrence – 4 Book Collection Box Set Classic English Literature & Modernist Fiction (Women in Love, The Rainbow, Sons a
Vendor: Books4people.co.uk Price: 9.99 £ (+2.99 £)Women in Love Lawrence's finest, most mature novel initially met with disgust and incomprehension. In the love affairs of two sisters, Ursula with Rupert, and Gudrun with Gerald, critics could only see a sorry tale of sexual depravity and philosophical obscurity. Women in Love is, however, a profound response to a whole cultural crisis. The 'progress' of the modern industrialised world had led to the carnage of the First World War. The Rainbow The Rainbow is about three generations of the Brangwen family of Nottinghamshire from the 1840s to the early years of the twentieth century. Within this framework Lawrence's essential concern is with the passional lives of his characters as he explores the pressures that determine their lives, using a religious symbolism in which the 'rainbow' of the title is his unifying motif. Sons and Lovers This novel is Lawrence’s semi-autobiographical masterpiece in which he explores emotional conflicts through the protagonist, Paul Morel, and his suffocating relationships with a demanding mother and two very different lovers.Lawrence’s novels are perhaps the most powerful exploration in the genre in English of family, class, sexuality and relationships in youth and early adulthood. Lady Chatterley's Lover Lady Chatterley's Lover is one of the most subversive novels in English Literature. The first edition was printed privately in Florence, Italy, with assistance from Pino Orioli; an unexpurgated edition could not be published openly in the United Kingdom until 1960. (A private edition was issued by Inky Stephensen's Mandrake Press in 1929.)

The Library Trilogy by Mark Lawrence 3 Books Collection Set - Fiction - Paperback/Hardback HarperCollins Publishers
Vendor: Books2door.com Price: 28.99 £ (+2.99 £)Titles in this Set: 1. The Book That Wouldn’t Burn 2. The Book That Broke the World 3. The Book That Held Her Heart (Hardback) Description: The Book That Wouldn’t Burn All books, no matter their binding, will fall to dust. The stories they carry may last longer. They might outlive the paper, the library, even the language in which they were first written. The greatest story can reach the stars . . . This is the start of an incredible new journey from the internationally bestselling author of Prince of Thorns, in which, though the pen may be mightier than the sword, blood will be spilled and cities burned… Evar has lived his whole life trapped within a vast library, older than empires and larger than cities. Livira has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never noticed them. That’s about to change. As their stories spiral around each other, across worlds and time, each will unlock vast secrets about the world and themselves. This is a tale of truth and lies and hearts, and the blurring of one into another. The Book That Broke the World We fight for the people we love. We fight for the ideas we want to be true. Evar and Livira stand side by side and yet far beyond each other's reach. Evar is forced to flee the library, driven before an implacable foe. Livira, trapped in a ghost world, has to recover her book if she's to return to her life. While Evar's journey leads him outside into the vastness of a world he's never seen, Livira's destination lies deep inside her own writing, where she must wrestle with her stories in order to reclaim the volume in which they were written. And all the while, the library quietly weaves thread to thread, bringing the scattered elements of Livira's old life – friends and foe alike – back together beneath new skies. Long ago, a lie was told, and with the passing years it has grown and spread, a small push leading to a chain of desperate consequences. Now, as one edifice topples into the next with ever-growing violence, it threatens to break the world. The secret war that defines the library has chosen its champions and set them on the board. The time has come when they must fight for what they believe, or lose everything. The Library Trilogy is about many things: adventure, discovery, and romance, but it's also a love letter to books and the places where they live. The focus is on one vast and timeless library, but the love expands to encompass smaller more personal collections, and bookshops of all shades too. The Book That Held Her Heart (Hardback) The secret war that defines the library has chosen its champions and set them on the board The fate of an infinite library hangs on one book, a book that holds the power to break the unbreakable. In the face of such forces, fragile things like hearts, family, and the world seem certain to fail. The people most vital to Livira are scattered across time and space, lost, divided into factions, in mortal peril....

The Complete Novels of D.H. Lawrence 4 Books Collection Box Set - Fiction - Paperback Classic Editions
Vendor: Books2door.com Price: 14.89 £ (+2.99 £)Title in This Set: 1. Women in Love 2. Sons and Lovers 3. The Rainbow 4. Lady Chatterley's Description: Women in Love Why aren't I enough?" she said. "You are enough for me. I don't want anybody else but you. Why isn't it the same with you?" D. H. Lawrence's Women in Love is a description of English society at the time of the First World War and an examination of the complexities of human desire. A sequel to The Rainbow, this narrative follows the amorous and sexual aspirations of the sisters Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen and the two men in their lives, Gerald Criche and Rupert Birkin. Weaving its way through daring subjects, the story bares the bold environment, character and thoughts of the new age. Sons and Lovers It never occurred to him that she might be more hurt at his going away than glad of his success. Indeed, as the days drew near for his departure, her heart began to close and grow dreary with despair. She loved him so much!" D. H. Lawrence's Sons and Lovers is a semi-autobiographical tale that explores the subtle psychological connection between sons and their mothers, and between sons and other women. Gertrude Morel's life revolves around her children - their cares, loves, talents and battles. But will that love hold them captive, or will it set them free? The Rainbow There was a look in the eyes of the Brangwens as if they were expecting something unknown, about which they were eager. They had that air of readiness for what would come to them, a kind of surety, an expectancy, the look of an inheritor' D. H. Lawrence's The Rainbow is a fascinating narrative that probes the often hidden subjects of personal and sexual emancipation. The tale follows the lives, loves, and adventures of three generations of the Brangwen family, in an England that was being gradually transformed through industry and urbanisation. It is Ursula Brangwen's spirited journey into womanhood that the story eventually focuses on. Will her experiments with relationships bring her any closer to realizing her desires, or will they push her to madness? Lady Chatterley's 'Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically... We've got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.' D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover was a novel before its time. It explores the sensual thoughts, needs and passions of the early twentieth century generation. The story revolves around the desires, and the reawakening of sexual pleasures, in the sterile life of Lady Chatterley. Does her attraction for Mr. Mellors find fulfilment, or does it fall victim to circumstances?
