4fara15 's review for:
Sons and Lovers
by Geoff Dyer, D. H. Lawrence
oh GOD this dragged on... and on... and on...
"Why can't a man have a young mother? What is she old for?"
"Well", his mother laughed, "she can scarcely help it."
"And why wasn't I the oldest son? Look – they say the young ones have the advantage – but look, they had the young mother. You should have had me for the eldest son."
"I didn't arrange it", she remonstrated. "Come to consider, you're as much to blame as me."
He turned on her, white, his eyes furious.
"What're you old for!" he said, mad with his impotence. "Why can't you walk? Why can't you come with me to places?"
just... what. is. this. book.
