    About this ebook

    Unlock the more straightforward side of Sons and Lovers with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

    This engaging summary presents an analysis of Sons and Lovers by D. H. Lawrence, which tells the story of the Morel family in the industrial Midlands. Mrs Morel’s marriage to her hard-drinking, sometimes violent husband has left her despairing and frustrated, leading her to focus all her attention on her children. This makes her particularly possessive of her son Paul, an aspiring artist who has difficult relationships with all the women in his life. The novel is partially autobiographical, and is considered by many critics to be Lawrence’s greatest achievement. His other novels include Lady Chatterley’s Lover and The Rainbow, both of which are regularly ranked among the greatest novels of the 20th century.
