Women in Love

David Herbert Lawrence (September 11, 1985 - March 2, 1930) was an English writer.

Much of Lawrence's work was based off his family life, which featured tension between his father, a coal mine worker, and his mother who was a schoolmistress.Lawrence's opinions as well as the sexual content of some of his works made him a lot of enemies in his homeland and some of his novels were banned for many years.

Lawrence and his wife left England after World War I and mostly traveled until Lawrence became ill and the couple finally settled in Florence, Italy.

Lawrence's best known works are Sons and Lovers, Women in Love, and Lady Chatterley's Lover.Women in Love is a sequel to The Rainbow, and like much of Lawrence's work, Women in Love caused controversy over the sexual subject matter.
