A review by sarahscire
Women in Love by D. H. Lawrence
4.0
I did this book a horrible injustice by reading it beachside in high school the first time around. Four years later, I was thankfully able to revisit the novel and dedicate the proper time, thought and discussion to the dramatic inconsistency and nuanced psychology of Lawrence’s characters in a college literature course earlier this year.
On a slightly irrelevant note, I particularly enjoyed the trained, modernist eye on the two sisters’ unusually colorful wardrobes. The bright tights and mixed patterns of last season seemed to pay homage to Gudrun and Ursula’s unique sense of style:
“Gudrun had a sash of brilliant black and pink and yellow wound broadly round her waist, and she had pink silk stockings, and black and pink and yellow decoration on the brim of her hat weighing it down a little. She carried also a yellow silk coat over her arm, so that she looked remarkable, like a painting from the Salon. Her appearance was a sore trial to her father.”
Can't you picture that concoction walking down a Jean Paul Gaultier runway?
