Read by Robert Powell (Abridged: 2hrs 20mins)

Lawrence’s style is bold, intimate and inventive and he always has the capacity to shock.  His great strength comes from the realism of the characters he portrays and the play on tension – first seen in the exchanges between Gertrude and Morel and continuing with Paul, his Mother and his two women – which never lets up. Then marvel at the depth and quality of the writing as the story moves relentlessly towards its conclusion.
