Complete with fresh perspectives, and drawing on the latest scholarship and biographical sources, The Life of D. H. Lawrence spans the full range of his intellectual interests and creative output to offer new insights into Lawrence's life, work, and legacy. This comprehensive biography delves into his major works, as well as his lesser-known writings and artwork, in order to reassess the innovative, challenging, and subversive aspects of Lawrence's personality and writing. The book also takes account of significant new sources and recent discoveries about the author's life and writings, including new correspondence, a short manuscript written in 1923-4, new evidence for important influences on his major novels, and two previously unpublished images of the author. Throughout, the author emphasizes Lawrence's gregarious nature, his desire to collaborate with others, and his adaptability to different social situations. He also pays particular attention to Lawrence's many interactions with literary advisors, editors, agents, publishers, and printers - a broad spectrum of publishing relationships that were required for him to work as a professional writer. Combining new material with astute commentary, this biography provides a deeper, more nuanced understanding of one of the most prolific and controversial authors of the twentieth century.
