Publisher's note

Perhaps best known as the author of Lady Chatterley's Lover, Women in Love and other novels, D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930) also wrote some of the 20th century's finest poetry. Exuberant and intense, his poetic work spans a diverse array of subjects -- love, marriage, family, class, art, culture and more -- all treated with sensitivity, and often, humor. This collection presents a rich selection of his verse from Love Poems and Others (1913), Georgian Poetry 1913-1915 (1915), Look! We Have Come Through! (1917), New Poems (1918), Tortoises (1921), and from periodicals such as The Dial and English Review. In addition to the celebrated title poem, individual poems include "A Collier's Wife, " "Meeting among the Mountains, " "Monologue of a Mother, " "The Sea, " "Humiliation" "Fireflies in the Corn, " "New Heaven and Earth, " and many more.

Annotation

The poetry of D. H. Lawrence is full of impassioned observations of nature and of human psychology. His subjects include specific plants and animals (snakes, fish, flowers), polemics against modern society, and the tormenting twists and turns of romantic relationships--based on his own long, passionate marriage to Frieda von Richthofen. Usually in free verse, Lawrence's poems are intensely personal and immediate. "Snake," a brilliant evocation of the existence of the snake--one of Lawrence's best-known works--epitomizes Lawrence's deep affinity for nature, and his ability to enter into the psyches of other beings, both human and animal.
