So many questions surround the key figures in the English literary canon, but most books focus on one aspect of an author's life or work, or limit themselves to a single critical approach.
The Complete Critical Guide to D. H. Lawrence is part of a unique series of comprehensive, user-friendly introductions which:
* offer basic information on an author's life, contexts and works
* outline the major critical issues surrounding the author's works, from the time they were written to the present
* leave judgements up to you, by explaining the full range of often very different critical views and interpretation
* offer guides to further reading in each area discussed.
This series has a broad focus but one very clear aim: to equip you with all the knowledge you need to make your own new readings of crucial literary texts.
