About the author
D.H. Lawrence
1,833books4,003followersDavid Herbert Richards Lawrence was an English writer of the 20th century, whose prolific and diverse output included novels, short stories, poems, plays, essays, travel books, paintings, translations, literary criticism, and personal letters. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanizing effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, human sexuality and instinct.
Lawrence's opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile he called his "savage pilgrimage." At the time of his death, his public reputation was that of a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as "the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation." Later, the influential Cambridge critic F. R. Leavis championed both his artistic integrity and his moral seriousness, placing much of Lawrence's fiction within the canonical "great tradition" of the English novel. He is now generally valued as a visionary thinker and a significant representative of modernism in English literature.

These are some truly eerie plays, that capture perfectly a bleak, working class malaise, all based around the tensions that erupt in taut, low income households.
The first concerns a son coming home from school- his new level of education brings him into conflict with his family still in their mining town, and his triviality about life becomes a true source of conflict.
The second is about a sort of loveless marriage brought low by actions taken before it and the third is about the end of love, brought about by tensions between husband and wife.
It is difficult to say if Lawrence actually is concerned with the class of people he is writing about- he does not often paint them in the kindest light. But the plays are so elegant in their grimness, hence they end up remaining with the reader long after they are finished.
The big downside is that some of the characters are written in midlands dialect and heavily accented- it is very very difficult to get a rough picture of what they are talking about.
