Touch and Go (eBook, ePUB)

A Play in Three Acts

Beschreibung

In "Touch and Go," D. H. Lawrence crafts a vivid narrative that explores the complexities of human relationships and the myriad ways in which individuals connect'Äîor fail to connect'Äîwith one another. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, this collection of stories is characterized by Lawrence's signature modernist style, marked by an intimate psychological insight and an acute awareness of the interplay between sexuality, nature, and emotional turmoil. The author'Äôs lyrical prose and vivid imagery invite readers to confront their own experiences of love and loss, as well as the ephemeral nature of touch and intimacy. D. H. Lawrence, a prolific writer and social critic, drew heavily from his own tumultuous life experiences, including his struggles with identity and belonging, which profoundly influenced his literary output. His keen observations of Victorian mores and industrial society's dehumanizing effects inform the narratives found in "Touch and Go." As a writer deeply engaged with the human psyche and the natural world, Lawrence sought to unveil the raw beauty and inherent complexities of personal interactions. I highly recommend "Touch and Go" to readers interested in a nuanced exploration of human emotion and relational dynamics. Lawrence's evocative storytelling and reflective prose challenge us to engage with our own connections, making this collection a timeless meditation on the fractures and bonds that define the human condition.

Autor

D.H. Lawrence, or David Herbert Lawrence, was an English author of novels, short tales, poems, plays, essays, travel guides, and letters. He was born in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, England, on September 11, 1885, and passed away in Vence, France, on March 2, 1930. He became one of the most important English authors of the 20th century because of his novels Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), and Women in Love (1920). Lawrence never again resided in England after the First World War. He and his wife left for Italy in 1919. Soon after, he started writing a series of books that included The Lost Girl (1920), and Aaron's Rod (1922). All three books are divided into two sections, with the tribal ritual of mate-finding taking center stage in the first and the central character venturing to Europe in the second. All three books have open-ended conclusions, but in Mr. Noon, Lawrence delivers his protagonist Lawrence's firsthand account of his time in Germany in 1912 with Frieda, carrying on the lighthearted theme he introduced in Sons and Lovers. Lawrence made the decision to leave Europe in 1921 and travel to the US, Australia, and Sri Lanka.
