«The Rainbow» is the novel by D. H. Lawrence, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (480 pages, in English).
The novel follows three generations of the Brangwen family, in rural England's Midlands, between 1840 and 1905. Tom, Lydia, Anna, Will and Ursula experience relationships marked by desire and conflict as they seek personal fulfilment; the arrival of industrialisation transforms their world and their understanding of themselves.
Originally published in 1915, it is the first instalment of the Brangwen Family series and a prequel to Women in Love.
For readers of English literary classics and stories about rural life, love and social transformation.
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.
