I cannot ignore it. Several things here get up the reader’s nose. There is the implication that while the ...”

“... He was indignant and suspicious when he heard that Graham Hough was writing a book on D.H. Lawrence, whom he himself had so recently and definitively dealt with. Hough must be up to something. In fact Hough, who had a perfect right to produce a book on Lawrence if he felt like it, was a good hater himself, in that ...”

Lawrence called Franklin ‘the pattern American, this dry, moral, utilitarian little democrat’, who ‘has done more to ruin old Europe than any Russian nihilist’ (although elsewhere in his Studies in Classic American Literature, ...”

“... an alarming number of others seem to have stepped straight out of the condescending dreams of D.H. Lawrence and Malcolm Lowry, all immemorial wisdom and ethnic patience. They say things like ‘The soul of Mexico is very old,’ or ‘The road has its own reasons and no two travellers will have the same understanding of those reasons,’ or (in ...”

For Pound – like James and Eliot – had previously found America uninhabitable. Davie finds America inhabitable. I should hope so too. But why wasn’t it part of his ...”

There are interwoven chapters on Margot Tennant, the Kaiser (‘the greatest ass of the last half-century to wear a crown’), Lenin and Chekhov, Bismarck, Curzon, Balfour, Tolstoy, Wilde, Proust, a couple of Czars, and so ...”

There were still self-destructive authors, or simply authors down on their luck, to be rescued. From the outbreak of the First World War to 1930, when he died from a fall on a London pavement, Edwin Pugh, a novelist of fair promise in his ...”

“... the only solution was to make new kinds of people (Philip Rieff was right to link him with D.H. Lawrence). Turner never makes Reich sound anything other than a very remarkable man while keeping the ironies intact, the main one being just how tyrannical his demand for worldwide sexual liberation became. The orgone box, as Turner writes, ‘offered a ...”

“... An emeritus professor of English at the University of Nottingham, Worthen has written about D.H. Lawrence and the Wordsworth circle and makes no claim to musical expertise; but he has been seized by the Schumann case. Paying fierce attention to original sources, among them Schumann’s autopsy report (printed as an appendix) and the domestic diaries that he ...”

Among the flowers of the novels, she also published the Amanita phalloides of three memoirs. The ...”

Lawrence, focuses on the destructive relations between Pendennis and Prochaska, to the extent that some of the first readers of the novel suspected she was sympathetic to Prochaska’s infatuation with Nazism. But Boyle wants her readers to perceive that his ...”
