Publisher Description

Burgess considered D. H. Lawrence to be one of the pillars of English literature and indeed a Modernist writer whose work had changed the face of the novel in the early 20th century.

Flame into Being was first published in 1985 to mark the centenary of Lawrence's birth and gave Burgess the chance to write a celebratory but also a brilliant (and short) introduction to the major books in Lawrence's oeuvre.

It is a beautifully written, entertaining and thoroughly accessible gateway to D. H. Lawrence aimed at both the general reader and students.
