關於本電子書
Lady Chatterley's Lover is a novel by D. H. Lawrence, first published privately in 1928 in Italy, and in 1929 in France and Australia. An unexpurgated edition was not published openly in the United Kingdom until 1960, when it was the subject of a watershed obscenity trial against the publisher Penguin Books. Penguin won the case, and quickly sold 3 million copies. The book was also banned for obscenity in the United States, Canada, Australia, India and Japan. The book soon became notorious for its story of the physical (and emotional) relationship between a working class man and an upper class woman, its explicit descriptions of sex, and its use of then-unprintable words.

關於作者
David Herbert Lawrence, known as D. H. Lawrence, was born on September 11, 1885, in the coal-mining town of Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, England. A prolific novelist, poet, essayist, and painter, Lawrence's work is celebrated for its exploration of human sexuality, emotional health, and instinctual life, often challenging the repressive norms of early 20th-century society.Lawrence's upbringing in a working-class family profoundly influenced his writing, imbuing it with a deep sense of social realism and a critical eye toward industrialization's dehumanizing effects. His mother, Lydia, was a former schoolteacher who instilled in him a love for education and literature, while his father, Arthur, was a coal miner, providing Lawrence with firsthand insight into the struggles of the working class.His most controversial work, "Lady Chatterley's Lover," faced censorship and legal battles due to its explicit content and frank depiction of an affair between an aristocratic woman and a working-class man. The novel's eventual unbanning in 1960 marked a significant victory for literary freedom and opened the door for more open discussions of sexuality in literature.Lawrence's ideas on the natural world, human consciousness, and the need for personal and artistic freedom resonated with contemporary writers and thinkers, influencing figures like Aldous Huxley and Anaïs Nin. His advocacy for a return to nature and a more authentic way of living remains relevant in today's discussions on mental health and environmental sustainability.A restless spirit, Lawrence traveled extensively, living in Italy, Australia, Mexico, and the United States, which enriched his worldview and infused his work with diverse cultural perspectives. He died of tuberculosis on March 2, 1930, in Vence, France, leaving behind a legacy that continues to provoke thought and inspire readers worldwide.
