A review by leslie115
Sons and Lovers by D. H. Lawrence

3.0

This book is hard to define. At times, I felt like I was reading a contemporary book about marriage, then a romance (with almost-purple prose), then a description of terminal illness. The characters were generally well-drawn, but some repetitions irked me (e.g., the number of times Miriam sighs, "Yes."). The character of Paul Morel especially frustrated me, but perhaps the biggest annoyance is the sudden switch at the end.

The narrator of my audiobook, Jenny Sterlin, was too nasal for my taste, but was generally fine.
