Vision and Revision in the Fiction of D.H. Lawrence: A Consideration of the Manuscript Development of Lady Chatterley's Lover (Harvard Perspectives in Literature) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Lawrence wrote and rewrote his final novel, Lady Chatterley's Lover, "from start to finish, three times." He began work on the material in the fall of 1926; the final version was completed in January, 1928, 26 months before his death. Windwalker's study moves deftly between a perspicacious close textual analysis and a thoughtful appraisal of Lawrence's final novel alongside Sons and Lovers, Women in Love and The Rainbow as the four major novels of a career in which they represent, as Mark Spilka as recognized, " an impressive and decidedly artistic attempt ? to set forth the conditions of manhood, womanhood, and marriage, as he felt or understood them in his own life." About 12,500 words, drawn from Windwalker's magna cum laude thesis in English Literature at Harvard.
