Lady Chatterley's Lover

劳伦斯（1885-1930）是二十世纪英国最独特和最有争议的作家之一。他生于诺丁汉一个矿工家庭，二十一岁时入诺丁汉大学学习，一生中创作了四十余部小说、诗歌、游记等作品，《儿子与情人》被认为是其最好的小说。劳伦斯提倡人性自由发展，反对工业文明对自然的破坏。他的作品对家庭、婚姻和性进行了深入探索，对20世纪的小说写作产生了广泛影响。她是英国诗人、小说家、散文家，曾在国内外漂泊十多年。他写过诗，但主要写长篇小说，共有 10 部，最著名的为《虹》（ 1915 ）、《爱恋中的女人》（ 1921 ）和《查特莱夫人的情人》（ 1928 ）。《查特莱夫人的情人》是劳伦斯的最后一部小说。劳伦斯相信，人类的性爱具有至高无上的价值，也许这个世界上没有一个作家能像他那样，以宗教般的热忱赞美人间性爱，以细腻微妙的笔触描绘两性关系中那种欲仙欲死的境界，而那伴随着炽烈的性爱体验的，是对历史、政治、宗教、经济等社会问题的严肃思考。由于小说毫不隐晦地描写了性爱，因而被斥为淫秽作品，并遭查禁。1959年出版此书的英国企鹅出版社还被控犯有出版淫秽作品罪，引起了轰动整个西方出版界的官司。直到1960年10月伦敦中央刑事法院裁定出版社无罪，小说才得以解禁。《查特莱夫人的情人》虽然命运坎坷，但终以其严肃的寓意、社会批判的主题，真切透辟的写实手法和细腻深刻的心理描写成为名著，并对现当代英国乃至西方文学产生了重大影响。

H. Lawrence ’s novels, Lady Chatterley’s Lover was published in 1928 and banned in England and the United States as pornographic. While sexually tame by today’s standards, the book is memorable for better reasonsLawrence’s masterful and lyrical prose, and a vibrant story that takes us bodily into the world of its characters.

As the novel opens, Constance Chatterley finds herself trapped in an unfulfilling marriage to a rich aristocrat whose war wounds have left him paralyzed and impotent. After a brief but unsatisfying affair with a playwright, Lady Chatterley enjoys an extremely passionate relationship with the gamekeeper on the family estate, oliver Mellors. As Lady Chatterley falls in love and conceives a child with Mellors, she moves from the heartless, bloodless world of the intelligentsia and aristocracy into a vital and profound connection rooted in sexual fulfillment.

Through this novel, Lawrence attempted to revive in the human consciousness an awareness of savage sensuality, a sensuality with the power to free men and women from the enslaving sterility of modern technology and intellectualism. Perhaps even more relevant today than when it first appeared, Lady Chatterley’s Lover is a triumph of passion and an erotic celebration of life.

John Thomas says good night to Lady Jane, a little droopingly, but with a hopeful heart. 挺同意Anaïs Nin说的，这是唯一的一部complete modern love story。 此版本注解很多，最后有附评论和extended readings。

The most pleasurable reading experience of a novel recently. Very readable. Lawrence’s depiction of human mentality and the dynamics between genders are just marvelous... always says what’s in my mind (though I am not able to put it into words)
