In its surface movements, in its capacious and expansive rhythms which so resemble the rhythms of nature itself, this book is one of the world's great examples of the multi-generational family saga. But the large claim that the author's masterpiece has made on the attention of twentieth-century readers and critics stems less from this fact than from the secret, parallel history Lawrence provides for the Brangwen family of Nottinghamshire-a history of the growth of their souls, which, in each case, moves in a great arc from sensuality to self-awareness and freedom. | The Rainbow by D.
