One of the most extraordinary literary works of the twentieth century, Lady Chatterley’s Lover was banned in England and the United States after its initial publication in 1928. The unexpurgated edition did not appear in America until 1959, after one of the most spectacular legal battles in publishing history • With her soft brown hair, lithe figure and big, wondering eyes, Constance Chatterley is possessed of a certain vitality. Yet she is deeply unhappy; married to an invalid, she is almost as inwardly paralyzed as her husband Clifford is paralyzed below the waist. It is not until she finds refuge in the arms of Mellors the game-keeper, a solitary man of a class apart, that she feels regenerated. Together they move from an outer world of chaos towards an inner world of fulfillment

Выход в 1928 году в итальянском издательстве романа Дэвида Герберта Лоуренса «Любовник леди Чаттерли» вызвал настоящий скандал. Описание любовных сцен было признано непристойным, а само произведение воспринято как призыв к разрушению института брака. Пуританское общество Англии посчитало, что роман насмехается над социальным устройством и институтами общества и насаждает чуждые, неправильные понятия свободы, морали и отношений между людьми. Полный авторский вариант романа «Любовник леди Чаттерли» увидел свет в Великобритании, на родине Лоуренса, только спустя тридцать лет после смерти писателя, в 1960 году • Красивая молодая женщина Констанция Чаттерли несчастлива с мужем, вернувшимся с войны инвалидом, который обречен на мучительное существование, невозможность физической близости

In these impressions of the Italian countryside, Lawrence transforms ordinary incidents into passages of intense beauty • Twilight in Italy is a vibrant account of Lawrence's stay among the people of Lake Garda, whose decaying lemon gardens bear witness to the twilight of a way of life centuries old. In Sea and Sardina, Lawrence brings to life the vigorous spontaneity of a society as yet untouched by the deadening effect of industrialization. And Etruscan Places is a beautiful and delicate work of literary art, the record of "a dying man drinking from the founts of a civilization dedicated to life."
