Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.

Lady Chatterley’s Lover

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://theorkneynews.scot/2025/11/02/lady-chatterleys-lover/

Magic of life

In the dust where we have buried the silent races and their abominations we have buried so much of the delicate magic of life.

~ D.H. Lawrence

It took me a while to get into the novel but in the end I found it an intense and even sensual story. I would say a classic ‘Lawrence’.

I started #reading Lady Chatterley's Lover and I'm not sure what to make of it yet.

I mean, I've only read a couple of chapters so it's early days.

But I've got a feeling its main USP is a controversial-for-the-time liberal attitude to sex and I'm not sure I'm going to find it all that interesting.

I'll give it a go though.

Actually, one concept that impressed me a lot is how it is mentioned one of the pits had been burning for years because it would take thousands of pounds to put out. So the surrounding area is permeated with burning and smoke.

It certainly sets a particular scene.

I want to grapple more with D.H. Lawrence, in particular "The Rainbow" and "Women in Love".

I've read both but came away puzzled and dissatisfied. What did I miss? I've been nagged by a feeling for years that my inadequacies as a reader have obscured important themes from me. I don't have much time to do unrelated to work rereading, but I do have a hunch that understanding these two works will better my understanding of both my country and myself past and present.

Lawrence's reputation has never fully recovered from the attack mounted on his work by Kate Millett in the 1970 "Sexual Politics". Feminist scholarship following Millett contributed to the supersession of the Leavisite criticism that had championed Lawrence as the heir to the "Great Tradition" of moral seriousness in English literature, and that critical approach withered not only intellectually, but also institutionally as British literature and humanities departments came more and more under the sway of US academia's priorities and values; what place for Lawrence's rainswept reflections on the burdens of class in Britain on a sunny, tech infused Californian campus? Pointing to Lawrence in New Mexico or Australia just feels desperate...

My reading, however, is informed but not determined by what's in favor (note the spelling) in departments of literature. Kate Millett might have hated "Lady Chatterley's Lover", but I have found it a rich source not just for thinking about sex and gender but also language, class, technology, and disability in interwar Britain . I hope that a reread of "The Rainbow" and "Women in Love" will prove similarly rewarding.

Life

Whoever wants life must go softly towards life, softly as one would go towards a deer and fawn that are nestling under a tree. One gesture of violence, one violent assertion of self-will and life is gone. […] But with quietness, with an abandon of self-assertion and a fullness of the deep true self one can approach another human being, and know the delicate best of life, the touch.

~ D.H. Lawrence
