Title: Lady Chatterley's Lover, Including 'A Propos of Lady Chatterley's Lover'
Description: "The Cambridge edition of Lady Chatterley's Lover (and A Propos of "Lady Chatterley's Lover") newly establishes the text of D. H. Lawrence's most famous novel. It does so by peeling off thick layers of typists' corruptions and compositors' errors, which have seriously marred the novel for over sixty years. It is the first edition ever to restore to Lawrence's text the words he wrote, and the first to correct authoritatively the 1928 Florence edition which Lawrence personally supervised. The Cambridge text includes hundreds of new words, phrases and sentences - and thousands of changes in punctuation. In every detail the new text now projects the sound of Lawrence's voice, embodies the precision of his mature style and reveals the force of his rhetorical power. The introduction establishes for the first time an accurate history of composition, typing, printing, publication and reception; the notes freshly identify dozens of difficult allusions; and the appendix, a wholly original essay, explains how Lawrence imaginatively weaves real places and people into the fictional tapestry that he creates. For students and scholars alike, the Cambridge text is the only text of the novel that can be read or quoted with confidence."--BOOK JACKET.
