About this eBook

Paul Morel grows up in a working-class area near Nottingham's coal mines. His mother is unhappy in her marriage to his alcoholic father and instead directs all her love towards her son. As a child, Paul reciprocates his mother's strong feelings, but as he grows older, he falls for the innocent Miriam and the modern Clara. He struggles to balance his feelings for his passionate yet subdued mother and the forbidden love for the two women who represent different paths in life.

Lawrence's profound psychological portraits and his skillful depiction of the physical and emotional struggles within the human psyche create an unbeatable narrative of an individual seeking his roots and his own identity. With vibrant and poignant prose, Lawrence explores themes such as class struggle, sexuality, and the impact of modernity on the human soul.


D. H. LAWRENCE [1885-1930] was one of the greatest English writers of the 20th century. Lawrence's depictions of erotica and sexuality led to several of his novels being banned and censored. He lived in self-imposed exile for four years due to the reception of his novels.
