  The marriage of Gertrude and Walter Morel has become a battleground. Repelled by her uneducated and sometimes violent husband, delicate Gertrude devotes her life to her children, especially to her sons, William and Paul - determined they will not follow their father into working down the coal mines. But conflict is evitable when Paul seeks to escape his mother's suffocating grasp through relationships with women his own age. Set in Lawrence's native Nottinghamshire, Sons and Lovers (1913) is a highly autobiographical and compelling portrayal of childhood, adolescence and the clash of generations.

  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.
