The Escaped Cock
ስለዚህ ኦዲዮ መጽሐፍ
The Escaped Cock is Lawrence’s take on resurrection, the life-force, and sexuality. The man who has been crucified wakes up in the garden wounded and weakened. Disillusioned with his old companions and inspired by the zest for life of the escaped cock of the title, he decides to live anew. Journeying to the sea, he stumbles on a temple of Isis, where its priestess, who mistakes him for the lost Egyptian god Osiris, introduces him to the pleasures of the flesh. Published in 1929, The Escaped Cock (also published as The Man Who Died) was Lawrence’s last major work of fiction before his untimely death in 1930.
ስለደራሲው
D. H. Lawrence (1885–1930) was an English writer of fiction, poetry, drama and non-fiction. Born and brought up in a Nottinghamshire mining village, he set several of his early novels in the industrialized East Midlands countryside. In 1912, he began a relationship with Frieda Weekley (née von Richtofen), who became his lifelong companion on travels through Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America. Industrialization and modernity, social alienation, and sexuality were major themes in Lawrence’s work. He died of complications from tuberculosis in France in 1930.
