Trade Review
The greatest imaginative novelist of our generation
What beauties the book contains! There are many pages in it so saturated with warm and lovely intimacies that one reads absorbed * Guardian *
It is a wonderful novel by a writer who created his own narrative voice
The point with Lawrence is never to be afraid of going too far, is always to push, push, push. In the pushing-process, Lawrence writes one of the most truly and thoroughly poetic novels in English
He's an intoxicator... Has there ever been anyone like him for bringing places and people so vividly to life?
