The marriage of Gertrude and Walter Morel has become a battleground. Repelled by her uneducated and sometimes violent husband, delicate Gertrude devotes her life to her children, especially to her sons, William and Paul - determined they will not follow their father into working down the coal mines. But conflict is evitable when Paul seeks to escape his mother's suffocating grasp through relationships with women his own age. Set in Lawrence's native Nottinghamshire, Sons and Lovers (1913) is a highly autobiographical and compelling portrayal of childhood, adolescence and the clash of generations.

George Henry Neville was D. H. Lawrence's closest childhood friend. The relationship between them was one of those deep male-male bonds that Lawrence always felt the need of, and someone like Neville recurs frequently in the fiction. Reading Middleton Murry's life of Lawrence, Son of Woman, in the 1930s, Neville saw it as the 'Betrayal' of his title, and set out to tell the story from his own point of view. Murry saw Lawrence's relationship with his mother as crucial; but Neville saw the other aspects at first hand. Above all, he stressed his own part in the story, as one of those who loved Lawrence and was loved by him, and says a great deal about Lawrence's early determination to make the sexual relationship the theme of his writing. Dr Carl Baron's additions meanwhile help place Neville's account as one of the most important first-hand sidelights on the story given artistic form in Sons and Lovers.

Sons and Lovers is D. H. Lawrence's most widely read novel and one of the great works of twentieth-century literature. In 1913, at the time of its first publication, Lawrence reluctantly agreed to the removal of no fewer than eighty passages which until now have never been restored. This edition presents the novel in the form that Lawrence himself wanted - about one tenth longer than the incomplete and expurgated version that has hitherto been available. The introduction of this edition relates much new information about Lawrence's two-year struggle to write his autobiographical masterpiece. The notes document many previously unknown sources, and indicate Lawrence's preoccupation with key contemporary issues such as women's rights, and the impact of evolutionary theory on religion and ethics.
