This collection of writings by the author of
Sons and Loverspresents his thoughts on religion, art, psychology and politics in a newly restored text.
Though D. H. Lawrence was one of the great writers of the twentieth century, his works were severely corrupted by the stringent house-styling of printers and the intrusive editing of timid publishers. A team of scholars at Cambridge University Press has worked for more than thirty years to restore the definitive texts of D. H. Lawrence in TheCambridge Editions.
Written while he was dying,
Apocalypseis Lawrence's final book. In it, he presents both a radical criticism of our civilization and a statement of unwavering belief in man's power to create "a new heaven and a new earth." This volume also includes Lawrence's review of
Book of Revelationby John Orman, and his Introduction to
The Dragon of the Apocalypseby Frederick Carter. The Appendixes also present previously unpublished material on Revelation.

D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930) was an English novelist, essayist, playwright, and poet remembered as one of the twentieth century's most influential writers. His novel
Lady Chatterley's Lover garnered controversy for its graphic sexual content and was banned in the United States until 1959. Lawrence's works, including
Women in Love and
Sons and Lovers, are now considered to be classics of English literature. He died in Vence, France, from complications of tuberculosis.
