Bookseller Notes

The first appearance of the complete text, generally considered to be Lawrence's last significant work of fiction, in this edition, privately published for subscribers only, the first part having previously appeared in February, 1928 in The Forum magazine. The contentious title, which, though Lawrence vehemently denied any double-entendre, was unlikely to find a favourable reception amongst a broader audience, was changed to The Man Who Died for later unlimited editions.
