Burgess, Anthony

Flame into Being: The Life and Work of D H Lawrence

Heinemann, London, 1985. First Edition, Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. 9780434098187 Burgess considered D. H. Lawrence to be one of the pillars of English literature and indeed a Modernist writer whose work had changed the face of the novel in the early 20th century. Flame into Being was first published in 1985 to mark the centenary of Lawrence's birth and gave Burgess the chance to write a celebratory but also a brilliant (and short) introduction to the major books in Lawrence's oeuvre. It is a beautifully written, entertaining and thoroughly accessible gateway to D. H. Lawrence aimed at both the general reader and students. Between his death and the outbreak of the Second World War Lawrence was remembered as a doubtful prophet but almost totally ignored as a writer. He had written a dirty book and had his exhibition of dirty paintings raided by the police; the brilliance of Sons and Lovers and Women in Love had either not been acknowledged or had been occluded'. Flame into Being examines Lawrence's work in its entirety, not just the well-known novels, and how, in the years following the second World War, he gained recognition as one of the twentieth century's most original and outstanding authors.
