starduest 's review for:
Sons and Lovers
by D. H. Lawrence
This book was awful, absolutely horrid. Less so the writing style but the plot made me so mad. The men are weak, selfish, chauvinists and the women also weak, mindless and the opposite of feminists. Lawrence writes of women "sacrificing" themselves for the man they love or giving themselves up in the most awful way to the most undeserving men and it makes me so angry. The Oedipal relationship is also rather uncomfortable and the sudden changes in Paul's character just made no sense. Thank goodness it was a short book as I otherwise wouldn't have been able to stomach it.
