D H Lawrence

Twilight in Italy- By Edgar Rice (Annotated) D H Lawrence

"Twilight in Italy" is a small book of travel essays, worth reading both for their own sake and for the light they throw on the context of Lawrence's work. D. H. Lawrence was a prolific and versatile writer whose plays, poems, novels, novellas, and short stories-more than forty volumes produced in a writing life of twenty years-often need to be read in the context of his essays, pamphlets, and travel books. There are four of these last, excluding the passages of description in his letters recording his expatriation in Europe, America, and Australia. The first of these journeys is recorded in his first travel book, "Twilight in Italy".
