When it appeared in 1913, it was immediately recognized as the first great modern  restatement of the oedipal drama, and it is now widely considered the major work  of D. H. Lawrence's early period. This intensely autobiographical novel recounts  the story of Paul Morel, a young artist growing to manhood in a British working-class  family rife with conflict. The author's vivid evocation of the all-consuming nature  of possessive love and sexual attraction makes this one of his most powerful novels.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e For the critic Kate Millett, \"\u003cb\u003eSons and Lovers\u003c\/b\u003e is a great novel because it has the  ring of something written from deeply felt experience. The past remembered, it conveys  more of Lawrence's own knowledge of life than anything else he wrote. His other novels  appear somehow artificial beside it.\"","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51167426183456,"sku":"9780375753732","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780375753732.jpg?v=1769732179","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/products\/sons-and-lovers-2","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
