Description

D.H. Lawrence and Attachment explores the complex relationships between dependency and autonomy in the works of British author D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930). Through innovative readings of his fiction, Ronald Granofsky reveals new insights into Lawrence's fictional characters and their struggles with key thematic concerns such as gender identification, marriage, and class. Lawrence's own experiences of attachment, particularly his relationship with his mother, are seen to have shaped his literary exploration of the delicate balance between closeness and separation. This book offers a fresh perspective on Lawrence's writing, highlighting the power of his intuitive insights into the human experience of attachment. By applying concepts from attachment theory to Lawrence's work, Granofsky deepens our understanding of this influential author's psychological writings, revealing a rich and complex fiction that continues to resonate with readers today.
