VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON MEETING

Lady Chatterley's Lover by D.H. Lawrence

Constance (Connie) Chatterley is married to a wealthy landowner who is paralyzed from the waist down and is absorbed in his books and his estate. After a disappointing affair with a playwright, Connie turns to the estate’s gamekeeper, Oliver Mellors, who awakens her passions. D.H. Lawrence’s last novel, which was the subject of a landmark obscenity trial in London, reflects his belief that men and women must overcome the restrictions of industrialized society and follow their natural instincts towards love.

Moderated by Readers Advisory Librarian Cindy Haiken. To participate and for details about meeting virtually or in-person, contact Cindy at chaiken@wallingfordlibrary.org.
