Censorship, contradiction & controversy: a decade in the life of DH Lawrence

DH Lawrence’s work – such as The RainbowWomen in Love and Lady Chatterley’s Lover – broke new ground and appalled censorious literary critics. Biographer Frances Wilson chronicles a pivotal decade in the writer’s turbulent life, characterised by a tempestuous marriage, a constant battle against class prejudice and a bitter backlash against vitriolic criticism.
