Introduction and Notes by Dr Jeff Wallace, University of Glamorgan Lawrence's finest, most mature novel initially met with disgust and incomprehension.

Women in Love is, however, a profound response to a whole cultural crisis. Source: https://www.amazon.com/Women-Love-Wordsworth-Classics-Lawrence/dp/185326007X
