Studies in Classic American Literature

by D. H. Lawrence

D.H. Lawrence's "Studies in Classic American Literature" is a collection of essays that offer a unique and provocative perspective on the works of some of America's most celebrated authors, including Herman Melville, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edgar Allan Poe. Lawrence's essays are characterized by their incisive wit, their willingness to challenge conventional wisdom, and their deep understanding of the human psyche. He explores the themes of sexuality, violence, and the search for meaning in American literature, offering insights that are both insightful and unsettling. While Lawrence's views are often controversial, his essays remain essential reading for anyone interested in American literature or the work of D.H. Lawrence himself.
