Originally published abroad in 1928, and unavailable in Britain until 1960 when it was the subject of an infamous obscenity trial, Lady Chatterley's Lover is now regarded as one of the pivotal novels of the 20th century. Lawrence's determination to explore every aspect—sexual, social, psychological—of Lady Chatterley's adulterous liaison with the gamekeeper Oliver Mellors makes for a profound meditation on the human condition, the forces of nature, and the social constraints that people struggle to overcome. Lawrence's final novel—here presented in the more explicit 1927 version which he described as "so improper that it'll never be printed"—confirms his standing as one of the most eminent fiction writers that England has produced.
David Herbert Richards Lawrence was an English writer of the 20th century, whose prolific and diverse output included novels, short stories, poems, plays, essays, travel books, paintings, translations, literary criticism and personal letters. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanizing effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, human sexuality and instinct.
Lawrence's opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile he called his "savage pilgrimage." At the time of his death, his public reputation was that of a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as "the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation." Later, the influential Cambridge critic F. R. Leavis championed both his artistic integrity and his moral seriousness, placing much of Lawrence's fiction within the canonical "great tradition" of the English novel. He is now generally valued as a visionary thinker and a significant representative of modernism in English literature, although some feminists object to the attitudes toward women and sexuality found in his works.
这是一部非常非常美丽的小说,美丽得如同童话。它是文学描写中最动人的爱情之一了:富有灵性,激情跌宕。然而读懂的人大约并不多。 “接触之美是远比眼见之美更为生动和深刻的。”男女主人公是自然的儿女,他们敏感,细腻,超越了世俗的名利、地位的纷扰,感受着生命最本...
评分 评分 评分 评分amsterdam的寂静很适合阅读。很惭愧到现在才来读劳伦斯,却也庆幸是现在才来读劳伦斯,因为若不是现在,我实在无法真正理解他。 实在说,我也是有些时候没读到这样动人的小说了,那样一种感动,实在穿透了我心肺的隔膜一直冲到脑子里,令我流泪的。电子书里有附加郁达夫和林语...
本来以为茨威格是最会写女人的作家了,后来发现可能是因为那时还没有读到劳伦斯吧。后半部分Mellors有点怨气太重,Connie过于傻白甜,但是整体还是挺喜欢的一本小说。
评分哎呀呀有点啰嗦,精准留白那样讲故事不好吗,非要把道理说得熟烂透
评分The last and the best
评分The love-making and and connection was only a sort of primitive reversion, and a bit of an anti-climax.
评分早年看见性,现在则看见反抗。其实这种让当事人隔绝了一切的装置和背景,令人把它当做porn看也不奇怪。奥威尔的 road to wigan pier ,福斯特的莫里斯,和查泰莱夫人是一脉相承的作品。
