A Pampered Belle. . . Devastated by her fiancé's betrayal, young Rachel Dempsey fled a life of privilege in Baltimore's high society for a hard-scrabble existence at her father's mission on the rugged shores of Lake Superior. There she tended the wounded brought to the mission's infirmary and vowed no man would ever touch her heart again--certainly not Black Hawk, the disturbingly sensual Ojibwa warrior she was tenderly nursing back to health. A Fearless Brave. . . Black Hawk had never allowed a woman to distract him from the dark dream of vengeance he had harbored against his hated Sioux enemy since boyhood. But soon the warmth in Rachel's eyes began melting the ice that shrouded his soul, and when danger threatened the mission, the fierce warrior spirited away the beautiful white angel to the safety of his own village. There Rachel discovered a new peace among the gentle Ojibwa, while the tenderness in Black Hawk's fiery touch ignited a sudden passion--convincing them both that they shared a love as bold and timeless as the untamed plains of the wild Northwest. 110,000 Words

Lawrence is a comprehensive collection of the renowned author's literary masterpieces, showcasing his unique blend of modernist writing with themes of love, sexuality, and the human condition.

This collection not only reflects the literary context of the early 20th century but also delves into timeless themes that continue to resonate with readers today. D. H. Lawrence, known for his controversial and trailblazing writing, drew inspiration from his own life experiences and observations of the world around him. His desire to push boundaries and challenge societal conventions led him to create works that were ahead of their time and sparked discussion and debate among readers and critics alike. I highly recommend The Complete Works of D. H. Lawrence to those who appreciate thought-provoking and introspective literature that explores the complexities of human relationships and emotions. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in delving into the mind of a literary icon who fearlessly tackled controversial topics with poetic grace and profound insight.

This is the first critical edition of The Boy in the Bush, a novel whose unlikely genesis has been surrounded in mystery and the subject of claim and counter-claim. A systematic study of all the extant textual documents has revealed a process of composition and revision which qualifies the novel to be treated unequivocally as part of the Lawrence canon. At Lawrence's suggestion an Australian nurse and part-time author, Mollie Skinner (whom he had met in 1922), wrote a tale set in late nineteenth-century Western Australia about a newly-arrived young Englishman's reactions to Perth and the outback. Lawrence's complete rewriting converted her production into an ambitious, powerful novel. The reading text here established eliminates all such instances of censorship and strips away the thousands of regularisings and miscopyings introduced by typists and typesetters. Based on Lawrence's autograph manuscript the text meticulously incorporates his subsequent revisions in the typescripts and proofs.
