D.H. Lawrence

First-edition copy of Lawrence's last masterpiece.

• D. H. Lawrence (English).
• New York: Privately printed for subscribers only, 1920.
• 536 pp.
• 8vo.
• Number 373 of 1250 copies. 
• Publisher's blue buckram, stamped in gilt.

The book was sold only by subscription, due to the enormous censorship difficulties that Lawrence's previous novel, The Rainbow, had encountered upon its publication in London — a fact which also helps to explain why Women in Love was first published in America, and only later in London.
