David Herbert Richards Lawrence 1885-1930 was an English writer of the 20th century, whose prolific and diverse output included novels, short stories, poems, plays, essays, travel books, translations, literary criticism, and personal letters. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanizing effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, sexuality, and human instinct. Lawrences opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile he called his 'savage pilgrimage'. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as 'the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation'. Lawrence is perhaps best known for his novels Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, and Lady Chatterleys Lover. Within these he explores the possibilities for life and living within an Industrial setting. His other works include: The White Peacock 1911 , The Widowing of Mrs Holroyd 1914 , The Lost Girl 1920 , St. Mawr 1925 , The Man Who Died 1931 and The Fight for Barbara 1933 .
