Dh Lawrence in Italy by Richard Owen

Dh Lawrence in Italy by Richard Owen

Drawing for the first time on the unpublished letters and diaries of Rina Secker, the Anglo-Italian wife of Lawrences publisher, Richard Owen reconstructs the drama leading up to the creation of one of the most controversial novels of all time and explores DH Lawrences passion for all things Italian.

"Beautifully produced. . . This is a story of friendships and a valuable portrait of a great writer at work."-- "Country Life" "Owen agrees with Anthony Burgess and Aldous Huxley that Lawrence served English literature and himself all the better for staying away from England. Gracefully, he portrays the Riviera and warmth of Italian society in which Lawrence was slowly resurrected and enabled to write."-- "The Times" "Owen offers an engaging picture."-- "Literary Review" "The former Rome correspondent of The Times reconstructs the drama leading to the creation of one of history's most controversial novels and explores DH Lawrence's passion for all things Italian."-- "Sunday Telegraph"

Richard Owen was The Times correspondent for 15 years. He was previously the paper's correspondent in Moscow, Brussels and Jerusalem, and also served as Foreign Editor. Owen has written several works of non-fiction, including Crisis in the Kremlin: Soviet Succession and the Rise of Gorbachov, Letter from Moscow and Lady Chatterley's Villa: DH Lawrence on the Italian Riviera.
