White Peacock
by Lawrence
About This Novel
The "Lawrence Classics Series" consists of four books: "Sons and Lovers", "Women in Love", "The Woman on Horseback" and "The White Peacock". The translation was led by domestic Lawrence research experts Feng Jiqing and Bi Bingbin, bringing together three generations of outstanding domestic translators, old, middle and young. The translation is simple and elegant, restoring the beautiful context of the original work, and a large number of footnotes present the social background and British cultural heritage of the time. "White Peacock" is his debut novel. It tells the story of the love entanglement between young men and women from different walks of life, and reveals the opposition between nature and modern civilization, pastoral life and the industrial age. It is autobiographical, and the themes that run through Lawrence's literary works-love, marriage, and the impact of parental discord on children-are all clearly and concretely represented in this book. Here, you can find the prototypes of characters in Lawrence's subsequent works and understand his original intention of creation.
