Lady Chatterley’s Lover is a famous novel written by D.H. Lawrence. D.H. Lawrence is UK’s modern novelist and he was considered to be one of the greatest writers of all time.He died at the age of 44. During his twenty years’creation, he had written a lot of wonderful works.?
Lady Chatterley’s lover is one of them. This book aroused so many debates when it was published first. Because it contains the details of description for the sex. Before Lawrence passed away, he complained that his works would not be understood in 300 years. But ever since the 1960s of the last century, his books had become popular among the readers.In this book, Chatterley and Connie are the main characters. They are husband and wife, but actually, they represent two different classes. Chatterley is cold and not enthusiastic, and he symbolizes a class that is ??lacking of vitality and near to death. However,Connie’s true lover in this book is very different in personality compared with Chatterley. He enjoys the nature and has a pleasant life. Connie is a healthy woman and she falls in love with Mellors. Her personality is very complicated. On one hand, she has been influenced by the society. On the other hand, she also enjoys the nature. The rules of the modern society restrain her love for the nature. She looked after her husband and discussed her husband’s writing. She had a very dull life, and that is her whole life. The best way to get rid of this is to go back to nature. Nature is pure and theonly way to get happiness is to get rid of the sophistication brought by modern society.
This book’s main focus is for the men. In modern society, men became useless to a certain extent. Since in that time, men’s social status is higher than women, so men could represent the society in a certain way. The description is not only about the men, it is more about the industrial society. Lawrence depicted sex deeply in this book, but besides the description, it is more about the reflection for history, religion and economy. This book was banned initially because of its description for sex, but finally this book was recognized. This book has a deep influence for contemporary British literature and even the modern literature so it was considered to be one of the classical books in the history.
Beautiful sentences
Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically. The cataaclysm has happened, we are among the ruins, we start to build up new little habitats, to have new little hopes. It is rather hard work; there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go round, or scramble over the obstacles. We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.
我們根本就生活在一個悲劇的時代，因此我們不愿驚惶。大災(zāi)難已經(jīng)來臨，我們處于廢墟之中，我們開始建立一些新的小小的棲息地，懷抱一些新的微小的希望。這是一種頗為艱難的工作。現(xiàn)在沒有一條通向未來的康莊大道，但是我們卻迂回前進(jìn)，或攀援障礙而過。不管天翻地覆，我們都得生活。
