"Drawing on a range of new approaches, this lively, probing and accessible volume enables us rethink and refresh D. H. Lawrence's writings in the light of contemporary concerns. Coming at Lawrence from angles as varied as psychoanalysis, war writing, empire, philosophy, eco-criticism and reception history, the essays represent a wealth of original work and amount to an invigorating reassessment of his reputation" Dr David Bradshaw, Worcester College, Oxford
