Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
The published editions of Women in Love , probably Lawrence's greatest novel, have always been remarkably corrupt due to a lengthy, complex process of revision and transcription, a threatened libel suit, and numerous unauthorized bowdlerizations. The editors of this new Cambridge Edition have labored scrupulously to produce an authoritative text. What emerges, if not dramatically different, is fresher and more immediate. The introduction provides a valuable history of the novel's composition, revision, publication, and reception, and though the elaborate textual apparatus is strictly for advanced students of bibliography, the notes are splendid. Lawrence's 1919 Foreword and two early discarded chapters are also included. The recovery of a modern classic. Keith Cushman, Univ. of North Carolina, Greensboro

Women In Love is one of the most beautifully written books I have ever read. The author's mastery of the English language is evident on every page.
Women in Love is also one of the most pointless books I have ever read. Sure, there are some very interesting conversations along the way -- but (and a big BUT) everything else smacks of being false and contrived.
Considering its girth, there is very little action in this novel. When there is action it repeatedly springs out of left field. All the action and most of the conversation in this novel suffers from a fundamental disconnection with reality.
Beyond all the other problems of this novel is its flawed premise. Lawrence seems to be saying that the only way modern man can ever escape the world he lives in is to be so passionate as to overcome it. In this, Lawrence seems to be the opposite of a Buddhist. That notwithstanding, Lawrence's theory also fails. How can being passionate overcome a world system based on the passions of men? Just as Buddhist withdrawl from the world of passion can never fix the problems of that world, Lawrence's call for unguided passion would only add fuel to the fire of a broken and fallen world.
In essence, Women In Love is beautifully written, inherently flawed, and marred by the surrealistic motion of the plot. I cannot in good conscience recommend a book this large, which when finished amounts to a bad daydream.

I do love this book. Don't read this book if you are looking for popcorn reading because you will be very disappointed. The book is comprised of moments, moments, moments...and reflection. It examines various aspects of love, destructive love and sensual experience. It examines sensuality as being the core of ourselves, and all forces of action as being derived from this. It examines the blurring of the lines. If you allow this book to inform you, it will.

This book is amazing. I agree with Maureen--genius! How deep this man dives in his exploration of love set against a god-awful backdrop of dankness and eternity! He speaks to me. How can he not speak to you? Look around you. How can he not be mirroring our lives in these characters? Dreadful, huh? Why? Because they're not like you. That's the crux--they're better.
And to know that Lawrence wrote this tedious book under 8 months amazes me. The intensity, the love, the hope.
He's the man...

Bland & Boring
Okay, I see that classics might be hard to read because of their "old" language or ways of thinking - both can make a book as well interesting though. Lesen Sie weiter...

Women In Love
This melodramatic novel self-consciously revels in the new freedoms of post-WWI Europe. As a newcomer to Lawrence, I can sense his enjoyment in attacking taboo subjects. Lesen Sie weiter...

brilliant writer, dreadful book
Women in Love is a very tedious read. Sure, the author does use the English language brilliantly. But perhaps too brilliantly; some passages take repeated reading to understand... Lesen Sie weiter...
