Connie´s unhappy marriage to Clifford Chatterley is one scarred by mutual frustration and alienation. Crippled from wartime action, Clifford is confined to a wheelchair, while Connie´s solitary, sterile existence is contained within the narrow parameters of the Chatterley ancestral home, Wragby. She seizes her chance at happiness and freedom when she embarks on a passionate affair with the estate´s gamekeeper, Mellors, discovering a world of sexual opportunity and pleasure she´d thought lost to her. The explosive passion of Connie and Mellors´ relationship - and the searing candour with which it is described - marked a watershed in twentieth-century fiction, garnering Lady Chatterley´s Lover a wide and enduring readership and lasting notoriety... The text is taken from the privately published Author´s Unabridged Popular Edition of 1930, the last to be supervised in D. H. Lawrence´s lifetime
