Description
Lawrence's first collection of unrhymed poems, Look! We Have Come Through!, presents a personal and dramatic exploration of love, hate, and human conflict. Written between the ages of 25 and 30, these poems form a narrative that is both a confession and a story of transformation. The poet describes this work as an "essential story, or history, or confession", with the critical experience occurring during this pivotal period in life. The Argument accompanying the book emphasizes its dramatic nature, tracing the conflict between love, hate, and the world around the protagonist. This sequence is closely related to Lawrence's earlier novels from the same period. Through Look!, readers gain insight into the poet's inner world and his exploration of the human condition.
