rating:
A little gem of a story by the always delightfully debauched Lawrence. He really lets his anger and frustration at the general repression of his sexual urges as dictated by society seethe in this one, one of the last things he wrote I believe. And there's the usual dichotomy between society/authority and nature/desire, but laid out very concisely. If you need a jumping off point for Lady Chatterly's Lover/Lawrence this is a good novella to start with.
