D. H. Lawrence

British and Irish Literature

David Herbert Lawrence was an English novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright, literary critic, travel writer, essayist and painter. His modernist works reflect on modernity, social alienation and industrialisation, while championing sexuality, vitality and instinct. Born in 1885 and dying in 1930, he also wrote the novella The Virgin and the Gypsy. His famous novels Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, Women in Love and Lady Chatterley's Lover were the subject of censorship trials for their radical portrayals of romance and sexuality and their use of explicit language. His opinions and artistic preferences earned him a controversial reputation.
