London: William Heinemann, 1972. The Phoenix Edition. hardcover. Book G: mild foxing outer edge text block, else clean and unmarked. graded lower for faint smoke smell, otherwise VG+./DJ VG: mild age toning and edge wear, else crisp and unclipped. 12mo. 103pp. from front flap: "Start with the sun, and the rest will slowly, slowly happen". In these thoughts on the Book of Revelation, D.H. Lawrence produced, as his last work, a celebration of "living, organic connections, with the cosmos, the sun and earth, with mankind and nation and family". He protests against the dehumanising "individualism" of Christianity and asserts that much of the symbolism of John of Patmos represents pre-Christian concepts of lasting power." #02534.
Sinopse
The son of a miner, the prolific novelist, poet, and travel writer David Herbert Lawrence was born in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, in 1885. He attended Nottingham University and found employment as a schoolteacher. His first novel, The White Peacock , was published in 1911, the same year his beloved mother died and he quit teaching after contracting pneumonia. The next year Lawrence published Sons and Lovers and ran off to Germany with Frieda Weekley, his former tutor’s wife. His masterpieces The Rainbow and Women in Love were completed in quick succession, but the first was suppressed as indecent and the second was not published until 1920. Lawrence’s lyrical writings challenged convention, promoting a return to an ideal of nature where sex is seen as a sacrament. In 1928 Lawrence’s final novel, Lady Chatterley’s Lover , was banned in England and the United States for indecency. He died of tuberculosis in 1930 in Venice.
