D.H. Lawrence is among the greatest English novelists of this century. Even now, his work has lost none of its power to shock, and more than 30 years after his death the "Lady Chatterley's Lover" trial fundamentally changed the moral climate of England. Although Lawrence's genius is now universally acknowledged, and his work is taught in schools and universities all over the world, he remains a controversial a figure as ever. This book looks at Lawrence's story from the point of view of the women in his life. The book features accounts of his mother Lydia, portrayed in "Sons and Lovers", his childhood sweetheart Jessie Chambers and later friends such as Katherine Mansfield, Catherine Carswell, Ottoline Morrell and his wife Frieda.
