D.H. Lawrence Today

<I>D. H. Lawrence Today</I> is a rare and extraordinary blend of intellectual-political history, psycho-literary biography, and literary criticism not seen in Lawrence studies since the heyday of F. R. Leavis. Barry J. Scherr provides a vigorous defense of Lawrence against his powerful enemies in the literary-cultural-political-academic world – a world dominated today by the political correctness of the elite extreme left-wing intelligentsia. Dr. Scherr employs a daring, original, intense strategy to deal with Lawrence’s enemies, involving unique, intricate, complex <I>explication de texte</I> as well as incisive polemic. Unconventional and seminal, <I>D. H. Lawrence Today</I> is the most stimulating, provocative, courageous book on Lawrence to appear in many years.
