Lyric and sensual, D.H. Lawrence's last novel is one of the major works of fiction of the twentieth century. Filled with scenes of intimate beauty, 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 intricacy make this a completely original work—a triumph of passion, an erotic celebration of life.

Sama w sumie nie wiem czego oczekiwałam od tej książki. Nie czuję rozczarowania czy jakiejś specjalnej radości, że przeczytałam. Czy można napisać pięknie o miłości i romansie, pobudzając wyobraźnie nie używając zbędnych słów by opisać miłosne i seksualne uniesienia? Owszem można i ta książka jest t...
Really, a very tender and beautiful love story. I'm not a subscriber to its philosophy, but I think that it is very true to itself and quite interesting. There is nothing overtly lurid in its sexuality; compared to today's use of sex in stories, it is extremely tasteful - even soulful. My one issue ...
