About this book

Three novellas, originally published together in 1923, they all feature a favourite Lawrence theme, the love triangle. The Captain’s Doll is set in Germany and tells the story of a German aristocrat who begins an intimate relationship with an English army officer only for the officer’s wife to appear. The Fox concerns two spinster sisters who run a farm together. When a young man begins working on the farm he upsets the balance the sisters have contrived in order to lead their lives as peacefully as they can.

About Unknown Author

D.H. Lawrence was an English author, poet, playwright, essayist and literary critic. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, human sexuality and instinct. ([Source][1].) [1]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D._H._Lawrence
