The Story of Writing @sownow.bsky.social · 02/11/2025

On this day in 1960, Penguin Books was found not guilty of obscenity for publishing Lady Chatterley’s Lover. The novel, by D. H. Lawrence was titillating for its time, leading to the British government prosecuting the publisher. #BookSky #History #OTD

Now reading. Fascinating to learn of the expert literary criticism readers of Good Housekeeping enjoyed in the 20s, from writers Virginia Woolf, Rose Macaulay, as well as novelist Clemence Dane. And how seriously women's magazines took their role in educating their newly enfranchised readers.

Back aroud 1996 I ran a tiny web page devoted to the poetry of D. H. Lawrence. I got a fair amount of email correspondence, mostly related to the poem "Self-Pity" ("I never saw a wild thing / sorry for itself"), which had been featured, peculiarly, in the movie "G.I. Jane".
