Выход в 1928 году в итальянском издательстве романа Дэвида Герберта Лоуренса «Любовник леди Чаттерли» вызвал настоящий скандал. Описание любовных сцен было признано непристойным, а само произведение воспринято как призыв к разрушению института брака. Пуританское общество Англии посчитало, что роман насмехается над социальным устройством и институтами общества и насаждает чуждые, неправильные понятия свободы, морали и отношений между людьми. Полный авторский вариант романа «Любовник леди Чаттерли» увидел свет в Великобритании, на родине Лоуренса, только спустя тридцать лет после смерти писателя, в 1960 году.
Красивая молодая женщина Констанция Чаттерли несчастлива с мужем, вернувшимся с войны инвалидом, который обречен на мучительное существование, невозможность физической близости. В ней много чувственности и женственности, она живет в ожидании любви, хотя испытывает к мужу платонические чувства. Случайная встреча с егерем мужа Оливером Меллорсом перерастает в бурный роман...
Книга на английском языке.
With its four-letter words and its explicit descriptions of sexual intercourse. Lady Chatterley's Lover is the novel with which I). II. Lawrence is most often associated. First published privately in Florence in 1928, it became a world-wide best-seller when Penguin Books successfully resisted an attempt by the British Director of Public Prosecutions to prevent them publishing an unexpurgated edition. The famous 'Lady Chatterley trial' heralded the sexual revolution of the coming decades and signalled the defeat of Establishment prudery.
Yet Lawrence himself was hardly a libcrationist and the conservatism of many aspects of his novel would later lay it open to attacks from the political avant-garde and from feminists. The story of how the wife of Sir Clifford Chatterley responds when her husband returns from the war paralysed from the waist down, and of the tender love which then develops between her and her husband's gamekeeper, is complex and open to a variety of conflicting interpretations.
This edition of the novel offers an occasion for a new generation of readers to discover what all the fuss was about; to appraise Lawrence's bitter indictment of modern industrial society, and to ask themselves what lessons there might be for the 21st century in his intense exploration of the complicated relations between love and sex.
