Publisher's Synopsis
Women in Love is a novel written by D.H. Lawrence and published in 1920. The novel explores the relationships and desires of two sisters, Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, and their respective partners, Rupert Birkin and Gerald Crich. Set in England during the tumultuous years following World War I, the novel delves into themes of sexuality, gender roles, and the struggle for individual freedom. Lawrence's vivid descriptions of the natural world and his exploration of the characters' inner lives make Women in Love a powerful and thought-provoking work of literature. The novel has been praised for its psychological depth and its exploration of the complexities of human relationships. It is considered one of Lawrence's masterpieces and a classic of modernist literature.He knew that Ursula was referred back to him. He knew his life rested with her. But he would rather not live than accept the love she proffered. The old way of love seemed a dreadful bondage, a sort of conscription. What it was in him he did not know, but the thought of love, marriage, and children, and a life lived together, in the horrible privacy of domestic and connubial satisfaction, was repulsive.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
