Lady Chatterley's Lover (Platinum Illustrated Classics)

The adultery committed by a lady of the British aristocracy —with a working-class man— and the description of their sexual relations were the trigger for "Lady Chatterley's Lover" to be a censored book for more than 30 years, not only in Great Britain, but in the rest of the world that received it as a horrifying transgression of modesty and established social norms. With this novel, D. H. Lawrence dared not only to show a dark side of the socio-historical reality of his time, but he also exposed the prevailing hypocrisy around the sexual and emotional life of human beings in a way that very few had dared to do. This edition contains illustrations by Katherine Silva and is presented in a 13.5 x 19 cm format, with a hardcover binding and a ribbon bookmark.
