Life with a Capital L: Essays
A brilliantly varied new selection of D. H. Lawrence`s essays, chosen and introduced by Geoff DyerFor D. H. Lawrence the novel was the pinnacle, “the one bright book of life”, yet his non-fiction shows him at his most freewheeling and playful. This is a selection of his essays, on subjects including art, morality, obscenity, songbirds, Italy, Thomas Hardy, the death of a porcupine in the Rocky Mountains and the narcissism of photographing ourselves. Arranged chronologically to illuminate the patterns of Lawrence`s thought over time, and including many little-known pieces, they reveal a writer of enduring freshness and force. “The greatest writer of this century, and in many things the greatest writer of all times” Philip Larkin
