{"product_id":"books-mr-noon-by-d-h-lawrence","title":"Mr Noon","description":"Mr Noon is a sardonic tale about the amorous adventures of Gilbert Noon, a young schoolmaster in Lawrence's home county of Nottinghamshire who gets entangled with a girl, loses his job, and decides to leave the country to escape the narrow provincial middle-class morality. It was first known as a long story posthumously published in A Modern Lover (1934) and collected in the volume called Phoenix II (1968). Lawrence in fact wrote a long continuation of the novel, but the manuscript disappeared for many years. The Cambridge edition brought the two parts together for the first time. It is like a sequel to Sons and Lovers, but much more straightforwardly autobiographical. The publication of the complete work added a new work of major importance to the canon of a great writer, and was widely hailed as a major literary event.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53675020517649,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780521252515.jpg?v=1781537503","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-mr-noon-by-d-h-lawrence","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
