About this listen

Sons and Lovers, Lawrence's third published novel, was written by the author at the height of his literary powers. The story of class differences (the relationship between a middle-class woman and a miner) in the tough world of coal mining brought a refreshing realism to literature. It remains a challenging text and is studied widely. It is particularly effective on audiobook in the hands of Nottinghamshire reader Paul Slack.

My confusion is why this is a classic. I am a mature woman and quite well read and I consider reasonably worldly but still gleaned nothing from this. I believe the author is gay and that may account for the depth of passion and love that is so strained. Maybe in time it will all find a place in my psychology.

I remain confused and incomplete
