'The Captain's Doll', 'The Fox', 'The Ladybird', 'St. Mawr', 'The Princess', 'The Virgin and the Gypsy' and 'The Escaped Cock' are among the shorter stories included in this volume. The main body comprises his famous semi-autobiographical novel of family, class, sexuality and suffocating relationships, 'Sons and Lovers'. 'Women In Love' is perhaps Lawrence's most mature novel, a sorry tale of sexual depravity in the love of the sisters Ursula and Gudrun, for Rupert and Gerald. 'Lady Chatterley's Lover', written in poetic and sexually explicit language, deals with the passionate relationship between Lady Constance Chatterley and Oliver Mellors, her emotionally and physically crippled husband's masculine gamekeeper. 1353 pages in huge softback.
