Lady Chatterley's Lover.
One of a number of pirated editions that followed the immediate aftermath of the first edition, also printed in Florence.
This novel shines as an example of Lawrence's finite skill in conveying the nature of relationships and his use of characters to communicate his personal philosophy. His depiction of love-making (seen as shocking at the time) and the intimacy and sense of touch derives from his wish to restore an emphasis on the body and balance it with what he perceived to be Western civilisation's over-emphasis on the mind.
Lawrence's writing and opinions earned him many enemies, censorship and misrepresentation of his creativity, which was his reflection on the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation, while also exploring issues such as emotional health, vitality, spontaneity and instinct.
Large 8vo (23 x 17 cm); bookplate to pastedown, discreet shelf ticket to rear pastedown, ; contemporary half-blue morocco, marbled boards, spine lettered in gilt in six gilt compartments, top edge gilt, touch of rubbing to extremities, a very good copy; 307 pp.
