Condition: Bueno. : The Virgin and the Gipsy es una novela corta de D.H. Lawrence, publicada póstumamente en 1930. La historia se centra en una joven, hija de un rector, que anhela una vida más allá de las convenciones sociales de su entorno rural en Inglaterra. Su encuentro con un atractivo gitano despierta en ella una atracción inmediata, aunque se siente paralizada por el miedo y las normas sociales. Solo una catástrofe natural le abrirá las puertas a un nuevo mundo de pasión y libertad. La novela explora temas de sexualidad, moralidad y la búsqueda de la individualidad en una sociedad represiva.
