Sobre este item
This is a a copy of Women in Love, by the English author D.H. Lawrence. Published in 1920, it is his follow-up to The Rainbow, and continues with the story of the lives of the Brangwen sisters, their relationships and their movements through British society. Both novels were massive best-sellers.
Viking Press was Lawrence's American publisher and published this book's first edition in 1922. Reprints then went through its subsidiary, Grosset & Dunlap. Due to the popularity of the book, it was printed three times in 1922, twice in 1933, and then again in 1930 and 1933. This copy is from the 1933 printing.
It is in good shape. There are small spots on the pages in the first chapter only, and a fingerprint on page 429. No adornment other than the color on the title page.
There are lots of fingerprints on the covers, but it would be worth it to have it cleaned. You can clean it yourself with Absorene, or take it to a printer to do it.
Otherwise excellent condition, with nice bright pages.
Sinopse
D.H. Lawrence’s Women in Love, the sequel to The Rainbow (1915), was published in 1920. However, these novels, two of the author’s greatest, were initially conceived as a single work. Women in Love continues The Rainbow’s story of the Brangwen family, focusing namely on the lives and loves of sisters Ursula and Gudren. Urusula, a teacher, becomes romantically involved with Rupert Birkin, a school inspector with some unconventional ideas and attitudes; Gurdren, an artist, becomes involved with Gerald Crich, an industrialist and coal mine heir. Drawn together by a number of incidents, all four yearn for fulfillment, but struggle to avoid destruction in the process. Getting Women in Love published proved to be a challenge following The Rainbow’s obscenity trial, which resulted in the novel’s being unavailable in the UK for over a decade after. Unsurprisingly, Methuen & Co., publisher of The Rainbow, backed out of publishing Women in Love. But after three long years of delays and extensive revisions, Thomas Seltzer published Women in Love in New York City. Women in Love is ranked 49th on Modern Library’s “100 Best” English-language novels of the 20th century; The Rainbow is ranked 48th.
