Banned in the 1920s, and not released widely until the 1960s, Lady Chatterley’s Lover was considered one of the most scandalous books of all time. Lady Constance Chatterley is stuck in a loveless marriage until she crosses paths with Oliver Mellors, the estate’s gamekeeper. Embarking on a passionate affair with Mellors awakens desires in Lady Chatterley that she had never been able to explore within the confines of straight-laced society. As her journey of sexual self-discovery deepens, Lady Chatterley must navigate the clash of mind and body, industrialization and nature, and firmly established class distinctions.

This final novel by D. H. Lawrence has endured in significance even as societal morals have evolved and changed.
