D. H. Lawrence

Biography

D. H. Lawrence (1885 – 1930) was the author of novels, poems, plays, essays, translations, travel writing, literary criticism, and more. His novels, such as Sons and Lovers (Duckworth & Co, 1913), The Rainbow (Methuen, 1915), and Lady Chatterley’s Lover (Tipografia Giuntina, 1928), were as famous as they were controversial. Upon his death in 1930, his wife, Frieda Lawrence, worked to publish as much of his remaining writing as she could, including several of his plays, which were published in VQR.
