Reviews
"Beautifully produced. . . . This is a story of friendships and a valuable portrait of a great writer at work."-- "Country Life" "Owen agrees with Anthony Burgess and Aldous Huxley that Lawrence served English literature and himself all the better for staying away from England. Gracefully, he portrays the Riviera and warmth of Italian society in which Lawrence was slowly resurrected and enabled to write."-- "The Times" "Owen offers an engaging picture."-- "Literary Review" "The former Rome correspondent of The Times reconstructs the drama leading to the creation of one of history's most controversial novels and explores DH Lawrence's passion for all things Italian."-- "Sunday Telegraph"
