Resumen del Editor

Lawrence wrote three drafts of ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ between 1926 and 1928: ‘The First Lady Chatterley’s Lover', this audiobook, ‘John Thomas and Lady Jane’ and the final version, ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’. All three books are published as ebooks and paperbacks by the Blackthorn Press. Although all three books have the same story line of an aristocratic woman falling in love with a working-class man, there are differences in their tone and sensibilities. Many critics have preferred this, the second version, for its greater depth of understanding between the two main characters and for the more detailed explanation of the character of Clifford Chatterley.

Exceptional

This book is an alternate version of D.H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover. Having read them both for the first time last fall, I like this version much better for many reasons. To avoid spoiling another reader’s experience, I’ll keep them to myself.

My timing in finally reading both was good.. very good. Netflix released a new adaptation of Lady Chatterley’s Lover just recently and it’s one of the only movies I’ve ever watched twice in such a short period of time. The characters & story were fresh in my head increasing my enjoyment tenfold. This cinematic version is exceptionally true to the book which is always a good thing. Everything about the adaptation is perfection. It’s truly a masterpiece that represents the book/s well.

This and lady Chatterley’s Lover were my first books by this author. Soon after I started The Rainbow and I’m already smitten. The alter of my appreciation of literature has expanded to D.H. Lawrence.
