In a Fury: Fighting with D. H. Lawrence
by H
About This Novel
A non-academic work on D. H. Lawrence. It is like a biography but not a biography, a novel but not a novel, a travelogue but not a travelogue, a memoir but not a memoir: a fusion of, or rather, a postmodern genre that transcends all specific genres, a genre that is counter-genre. Therefore, although the author repeatedly claimed to write a "serious academic work on Lawrence", he ended up writing a black comedy that is neither serious nor academic, and makes people laugh from beginning to end. It's still about Lawrence, but more precisely about "the book that was intended to be written about Lawrence but never was." Despite this, the author still uses his new and free style, and uses excerpts, descriptions and comments on Lawrence's works sprinkled throughout the text like spices, to outline a unique D. H. Lawrence for us.
