  Introduction and Notes by Dr Howard J. Booth, University of Kent at Canterbury. 'When you have experienced Sons and Lovers you have lived through the agonies of the young Lawrence striving to win free from his old life'. Richard Aldington This novel is Lawrence's semi-autobiographical masterpiece in which he explores emotional conflicts through the protagonist, Paul Morel, and his suffocating relationships with a demanding mother and two very different lovers. Lawrence's novels are perhaps the most powerful exploration in the genre in English of family, class, sexuality and relationships in youth and early adulthood.

  Tess is driven by poverty into the service of her wealthy relations. Her lowly position leads her to become the victim of her cousin Alec, her seducer and her nemesis. When she marries Angel Clare, who is himself far from innocent, she confesses her past, but Clare is unforgiving and cruelly leaves her to face her destiny alone. This unforgettable novel exhibits the hallmarks of Hardy's best art: a keen sense of tragedy and a sharp critique of social hypocrisy. This newly edited edition contains the original Prefaces and a map outlining the topography of Tess's wanderings.

  One of the greatest novels of the 20th century, Sons and Lovers is published uncut and uncensored for the first time, as D.H. Lawrence wrote it. William Morel's role as a forerunner of his brother Paul is restored--the book now fulfills the plurals of the title, and above all, the sexual encounters remind us how far ahead of his time Lawrence was.
