Who is DH Lawrence?

DH Lawrence, the great novelist of our time.

Born Saint David Victor Herbert I. A. Richards Lawrence on 11 September 1885, DH Lawrence was a fecund English author of the 20th century. His diverse authorship genre included aggregation of plant ranging from novels and short narratives to plays, essays, poems, and even paintings.

His plant reflected his arch positions on the less than advantageous personal effects of modernisation - an inevitable consequence of planetary industrialization.

In his works, Lawrence faces substances relating to issues of the bosom - the at odds emotions between morality and the most basic of human needs. Lawrence's honorable portraiture of his feelings and sentiments earned him many dissatisfied readers, even enemies, censoring and menaces of functionary persecution.

Many of his work were also misrepresented much of his life. Ostracizing himself from this disapproving public, he died on 2 March 1930, taking with this negative repute to his grave.
