 | Rainbow by Anne Fernihough, D. H. Lawrence, Kate Flint, Keith Cushman, Mark Kinkead-Weekes
Lawrence's novel, declared obscene when it was published in 1915, is the mystical, passionately written chronicle of three generations of a Nottingham farming family. Tom Brangwen marries a widow named Lydia Lensky; Lydia's daughter Anna marries her cousin Will, a woodcarver, and has a large family. Their daughter, Ursula, leaves their simple rural world and becomes a schoolteacher--much as Lawrence himself did. She falls in love with Anton Skrebensky and, when he is called away to war, responds to an ardent fellow teacher, a feminist and epitome of the new woman named Winifred. Anton returns, and she rejects him. The struggles of Ursula and her sister Gudrun to find their way in a changing world are continued in Lawrence's WOMEN IN LOVE. AUTHOR: Anne Fernihough, D. H. Lawrence, Kate Flint, Keith Cushman, Mark Kinkead-Weekes
