Lady Chatterly's Lover

The intelligent, young Constance Reid marries Sir Clifford Chatterly, a bigoted intellectual paralyzed during WWI. Her husband brings her the intellectual connections and pursuits she wanted, but Lady Chatterly's life has become sterile and lifeless without physical love. She fills that need with a working man from the lower classes, and discovers a few truths about the nature of human relationship. Set in a class-based time and society, the story explores more than the intimate components of human love. D.H. Lawrence's last novel refracts human relationship like a prism. Each facet of physical, mental, and social desire and fulfilment is lit from within by the time and place of one woman's story.
