Summary

"Lady Chatterley's Lover" by D. H. Lawrence is a book set in the aftermath of World War I. It tells the story of Constance Chatterley, also known as Connie, who is married to Sir Clifford Chatterley. After Clifford is wounded in the war, he becomes paralyzed, which puts a huge strain on their relationship. Connie feels unfulfilled and longs for connection and passion, which leads her to question her role as an aristocrat's wife and seek something more meaningful. Throughout the story, Connie faces many challenges that include her own desires and the expectations of society. Lawrence's words reveal the tension between the old ways and new ideas about freedom and love that Connie wants to experience.

About the Author

David Herbert Lawrence was an English novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright, literary critic, travel writer, essayist, and painter. His modernist works reflect on modernity, social alienation and industrialization, while championing sexuality, vitality and instinct. Four of his most famous novels β€” Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), Women in Love (1920), and Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928)β€” were the subject of censorship trials for their radical portrayals of romance, sexuality and use of explicit language.
