The Unpeaceful, Unruly Man

D H Lawrence (1885-1930) is most celebrated as the author of such famous novels as 'Women in Love', 'The Rainbow' and, of course, 'Lady Chatterley's Lover', but he also wrote a great number of short stories. Anna Marisa Sava's study highlights Lawrence's contribution to this genre, and the themes and passions explored in his stories - ultimately, the vortex of relationships between men and women, two contrasting forces compared to the flowing of two rivers side by side, sometimes mingling, then separating again and travelling on. Only a new relationship between them 'can save humanity from self-destruction'.In this homage to Lawrence, Anna Marisa Sava concludes: He seems so close to us, in our insecurity and .loneliness in the crowd..Lawrence still offers us a deep lesson in life: a great faith in the creative human spirit and in its power to give fullness to life.
