Story:

Women in love by D h lawrence is thought to be one of the greatest modernist novels of 1920s. In each aspect, from love to sex, from egoism to disrurption, from conjugality to disloyality, the novel provides a multiple of spaces, readings, stories and contexts that challenge us every time. Gudrun and Ursula, the two sisters are the queens of their own castles. While Gudrun is wild, Ursula is a bit domestic. Both find their matches Gerald and Rupert Birkin respectively. But their courtship goes through lots of hurdles, oppositions, transitionality. And that grows and grooms ursula on the one hand and destructs the mind of Gudrun on the other. Besides, Gerald -Birkin's homosocial relationship is also described by the author and that makes the novel more modern with its tensions, twists and tunns. Moreover, Lawrence's love and sexual description makes one more and more allured to read the novel. The way the oppositional power of people cohabits with each other, the way, the love and sex become art, the way, a human being and his tensions, his psychic ups and downs are portrayed is more than lovable. The novel really gives us the painting of life, a collage of modern mind.
