Review Quotes

"New, cutting-edge work at the interface between cultural and intellectual history, modernist studies, and research on D.H. Lawrence." --Howard J. Booth, Senior Lecturer, University of Manchester, UK

"The collection is particularly strong for its unexpected details, such as the comparison of Lawrence's relatively unknown plays with Joyce's English translation of Hauptmann's play Vor Sonnenaufgang. This is a timely, wide-ranging, and pertinent survey of Lawrence's work in the present day." --Choice
