Synopsis
A multi-generational family saga that chronicles the lives of three generations of the Brangwen family on their Nottinghamshire farm--and the riveting prequel to Women in Love --from one of the greatest and most controversial writers of the 20th century. Rooted in an agrarian past, Tom and Lydia Brangwen and their descendants find themselves navigating a rapidly changing world--a world of unprecedented individualism, alienation, and liberation. Banned after an obscenity trial in 1915 for its frankness about sexuality, THE RAINBOW was most remarkable for the pathbreaking journeys of its female characters, particularly that of Ursula Brangwen, whose destiny Lawrence explored further in his next novel, Women in Love. In its surface drama, in its capacious and expansive rhythms that so resemble the rhythms of nature itself, THE RAINBOW is one of the world's great examples of the multi-generational family saga. But the large claim that Lawrence's masterpiece has made on the attention of readers and critics stems less from this fact than from the deeper parallel history he provides for the Brangwens--a history of the growth of their souls, moving in a great arc from sensuality to self-awareness and freedom., Spanning the second half of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth, D. H. Lawrence's provocative novel traces the lives of three generations of one family on their Nottinghamshire farm.

    The book is charming -- and new condition as shown. This is a hard to find item, so glad to find it new here for a reasonable price! It arrived quickly, but was packed in a mailing envelope -- and even though it was padded, one of corner was crushed, which was disappointing as this is to be a gift. Overall postive, nonetheless.
