Sea and Sardinia

by D. H. Lawrence

Overview

Written when he was living in Sicily, Sea and Sardinia records Lawrence's journey to Sardinia in 1921. It reveals his delighted response to a new landscape and people and his uncanny ability to transm ute the the spirit of place into literary art but, like his other travel writings, it is also a shrewd enquiry into the political and social values of an era which saw the rise of communism and fascism. This edition restores censored passages and corrupt readings to reveal the book Lawrence himself called 'a marvel of veracity'.
