«L'Amant de Lady Chatterley» is the classic novel by D.H. Lawrence, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (384 pages, in French).
Constance Reid, married to the officer Clifford Chatterley, an invalid after the First World War, has an extramarital affair with Mellors, the estate's gamekeeper, which defies the conventions of English society. The novel pits desire, nature and intimacy against the industrial world and the morality of its time.
The novel was originally published as «Lady Chatterley's Lover» in 1928; this French edition includes translation and editing by Pierre Nordon.
David Herbert Lawrence was an English novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright, literary critic, travel writer, essayist, and painter. His modernist works reflect on modernity, social alienation and industrialisation, while championing sexuality, vitality and instinct. Four of his most famous novels – Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), Women in Love (1920), and Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928) – were the subject of censorship trials for their radical portrayals of romance, sexuality, and use of explicit language.
