The Rainbow begins with Tom Brangwen, a farmer rooted in rural life, and follows through to his granddaughter Ursula, who becomes a teacher in a world increasingly shaped by urbanization and capitalist values. Through Ursula's struggles for spiritual, sensual, and intellectual fulfillment, Lawrence delves into themes of societal conformity, the complexities of relationships, and the search for self amidst changing times.
The Rainbow by D. H. Lawrence explores sexual desire as a natural and spiritual force within human relationships. This resulted in 1,011 copies being seized and burned. Consequently, the novel was banned in Britain for 11 years, though it remained available in the United States. Lawrence's work challenged the social norms of the early 20th century by addressing themes of sexuality, individuality, and human connection, pushing the boundaries of what was considered acceptable in literature. Its eventual reinstatement and continued study mark it as a pivotal text in the discussion of literary freedom and the complexities of human nature.
This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
