Publisher's Synopsis
Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket
Passion, obsession, and the raw intensity of human desire ignite when two fiercely independent sisters, Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, become entangled with two very different men. Ursula is drawn to the enigmatic school inspector Rupert Birkin, whose radical views on love and life challenge her deepest convictions, while Gudrun's relationship with the wealthy and tormented Gerald Crich spirals into a dangerous dance of power and attraction. Set against a world teetering between tradition and modernity, their intertwined fates unfold in a landscape of beauty, violence, and emotional turmoil. As their loves deepen and unravel, they are forced to confront the dark, unspoken forces that drive them toward ecstasy-or destruction.
Daring and provocative, Women in Love captures the turbulence of post-World War I society, challenging traditional notions of love, identity, and human connection. D. H. Lawrence explores the psychological and philosophical struggles of a world caught between the rigid past and an uncertain future, pushing boundaries with bold themes of passion, power, and individuality. The novel's modernist style, rich symbolism, and raw emotional depth cement its place as one of the most controversial and influential works of the 20th century. Through its intense character dynamics and unflinching social critique, it remains a groundbreaking exploration of human relationships in a rapidly changing world.
