Book Reviews
No one ever wrote better about the power struggles of sex and love.
Doris Lessing
Lawrence was concerned with one end: to reveal how love, how a relationship between a man and a woman can be most touching and beautiful, but only if it is unihibited and total.
Alfred Breit
On its purely physical side [Lawrence's philosophy] seems mere sensualism, and many, not looking any further, have called it such, or even worse. But this is to misunderstand Lawrence.... Lawrence places sex at the heart of life; without sex there would be no life. Hence it is spiritual as well as physical. And it pulsates throughout the universe.
Percy Hutchinson - New York Times Book Review (11/30/1930)
