pp. 620, b/w photographs, “portrays the volatile union between “the genius and the Valkyrie” with subtlety, wit and compassion. The novels of British modernist Lawrence (1885-1930) incite carking disagreement; Lady Chatterley’s Lover has been characterized as a frank and lyrical exploration of erotic love and “the foulest book in English literature.” As the author shows, the conflicts that animate Lawrence’s fiction-between the miner and the aristocrat, exuberant heterosexuality and ambivalent homoeroticism, the Tory and the iconoclast-were grounded not only in his parents’ hostile marriage, but also in his own. Yet Maddox carefully explores the bonds that allowed a match between such different people-irascible, tubercular Lawrence and outspoken, sexually adventurous Baroness Frieda von Richthofen Weekley-not only to endure but to flourish.”
