Summary

This novel, originally written in 1916, published in 1921, explores the lives of the Brangwen sisters, Ursula and Gudrun, and their developing love affairs with Rupert Birkin, an intellectual, and Gerald Crich, an industrialist. The despair of one sister's relationship contrasts with the happiness of the other's as the four clash in thought, passion, and belief, in their search for a life that is truly complete. The novel is the sequel to The Rainbow. The introduction in this new edition discusses the author's style and imagery. Also included is a chronology of the author's life and work, further reading, notes and appendices containing the original foreword to the novel, a fragment of "The Sisters", the "Prologue" and "Wedding" chapters, as well as a map and a discussion of the setting and people involved. -- From back cover.
