"Women in Love" was written in the years before and during World War I. Criticized for its exploration of human sexuality, the novel is filled with symbolism and poetry -- and is compulsively entertaining.

The story opens with sisters Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, characters who also appeared in "The Rainbow," discussing marriage, then walking through a haunting landscape ruined by coal mines, smoking factories, and sooty dwellings. Soon Gudrun will choose Gerald, the icily handsome mining industrialist, as her lover; Ursula will become involved with Birkin, a school inspector -- and an erotic interweaving of souls and bodies begins. One couple will find love, the other death, in Lawrence's lush, powerfully crafted fifth novel, one of his masterpieces and the work that may best convey his beliefs about sex, love, and humankind's ongoing struggle between the forces of destruction and life.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Widely considered the best novel from one of the best writers of the twentieth century, this "astonishing work" (The New York Review of Books) continues where The Rainbow left off, revealing a powerful portrayal of two couples dynamically engaged in a struggle with themselves, with each other, and with lifes intractable limitations. The sisters Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, whom we first met in Lawrences novel The Rainbow, here become involved with two close friends: Rupert, an intellectual school inspector; and Gerald, the wealthy heir to a mine owner. The turbulent relationships that resultchronicled with an emotional and sexual frankness that provoked controversy on the books publication in 1920take the characters from an English landscape of coal mines and sooty factories to the snowy heights of the Alps, where tragedy strikes. Women in Love was written during World War I, and while that conflict is never mentioned in the novel, a sense of background danger, of lurking catastrophe, continually informs its drama. Lawrence was a powerful, prophetic writer, but in addition he brought such delicacy to his treatment of the human and natural worlds that E. M. Forsters claim that he was the greatest imaginative novelist of his generation does him too little justice rather than too much. One of Lawrence's most popular novels, this fascinating and disturbing sequel to The Rainbow depicts the emotional life of the Brangwen sisters. Set just after World War I, this prophetic masterpiece is filled with perceptions about sexual powers and sexual obsession now held to be timeless and true.
