Sarkar, R.N.

The novels of D.H. Lawrence - New Delhi Atlantic 2007 - 285p.

The present book is a grateful acknowledgement of the contribution of d.h. lawrence in the arena of literature during the twentieth century. A renowned novelist, poet and critic, the essential lawrence is solidified in the four related novels, three in quick succession, the fourth flung far late, though no damage done to the running linkage thereby. These four works sons and lovers, a faithful autobiographical account of Lawrence s early years; the rainbow, a novel marked for obscenity and frankness about sex; women in love, an analytical study of sexual depravity and an epic of vice ; and lady Chatterley s lover, a novel banned except for an expurgated edition until 1959 in spite of their separate quite distinctive taste and flavour, stand out none in isolation, rather contribute to the main flow of idea that Lawrence held close to his heart as an author. In the present book an attempt has been made to examine objectively Lawrence s novels, covering both the sides of their individual uniqueness and their cumulative impact upon the progression of the one undeviated interest.
Since the novels discussed in the novels of D.H. Lawrence are prescribed in the English syllabi of the universities of India, both teachers and students will find it extensively useful here, and general readers anywhere who may care for literary values will also find it intellectually stimulating.
