Description

Residing in Italy, Lawrence provides book reviews while working on Lady Chatterley’s Lover

ALS, one page, 4.5 x 7, November 30, 1926. Letter written from Florence to Edgell Rickword. In full: “Thanks for the Cunninghame Grahame book—I'm sure it will interest me, & shall be glad to have a shot at reviewing. It's nice to say what one thinks. So send me a list of titles of books I might do, if it is not troubling you too much.” In fine condition, with some scattered light toning and foxing, and a central horizontal fold. It was while living near Florence that Lawrence wrote The Virgin and the Gypsy and the various versions of the scandalous Lady Chatterley's Lover. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
