The Virgin and the Gypsy Audiobook

" What I realized when I finished the book was that the whole thing was building to the last line, and the payoff of the last line was absolutely incredible. The Eastwoods were really fascinating characters, quite original (to me). "

" Essence of the novel stays a long time with me. Remakable. "

" These stories made me a D. H. Lawrence fan and no, I have not yet read the "big" D. H. Lawrence books. That doesn't mean I'm not a fan. Yes, I enjoyed this slim volume that much. "

" Intriguing - but lacking, somehow. I enjoyed the characters and the writing, but the ending felt horribly anti-climatic. "

" A little gem of a story by the always delightfully debauched Lawrence. He really lets his anger and frustration at the general repression of his sexual urges as dictated by society seethe in this one, one of the last things he wrote I believe. And there's the usual dichotomy between society/authority and nature/desire, but laid out very concisely. If you need a jumping off point for Lady Chatterly's Lover/Lawrence this is a good novella to start with. "

" Nothing but nonsense. I'd say it's hard to follow, but there's nothing to follow. Also a bit lewd. "

" Made a self reccomendation to try D.H Lawrence based on something I read in another novel. Boy was it disappointing. The book is complete rubbish..and poorly written. "

" Very enjoyable - I do like Lawrence. "

" read it in arabic. nice love story. and good end. and the clue of these story is special abut the first confused love. "

" love is sometimes forbidden....it is not always about fulfilment...I'm violently in love with it "

" interesting, however i kept finding myself waiting for sometiming more to happen. but the fact that nothing did kept me reading more and more..and thats why i say INTERESTING!! "

" Loved the book. This is for any woman who has had to curb her natural urge to go against the grain. "

" D.H. Lawrence can kiss my ass! "

" A quick, but good read. Just read it! "

" Reads like a low-budget Sunday afternoon TV film and has undoubtedly been made into one many times over. "

" To be honest I never finished this book of short stories. While many held promise the way they ended without resolution annoyed me and I found reading this book a chore more than an enjoyment. "

" Enjoyable short read with an interesting ending. "

" After this tale, i'll sure read more of D. H. Lawrence. Loved his writting skills and ability to keep you interested all along the way. "

" Not a fan of this author. "

" D.H. Lawrence is the master of psychoanalysis. Though he hated Freud and the likes of him. "

" a novel you do not get bored reading. "

" Intriguing - but lacking, somehow. I enjoyed the characters and the writing, but the ending felt horribly anti-climatic. "

" Not the cover of the paperback I read. Oh well... This one doesn't stick in the mind very well. I only recall that it was interesting enough for me to finish it. I don't really recall any love story. "

" Essence of the novel stays a long time with me. Remakable. "

" love is sometimes forbidden....it is not always about fulfilment...I'm violently in love with it "

" It's been a while since I've read anything "classic" and it strikes me that D.H. Lawrence tells the story with all the things he leaves out as much as what he describes... I like the simplicity of the language. "

" Very funny. Half the dialogue reads like Winnie-the-Pooh. "

" Very enjoyable - I do like Lawrence. "

" read it in arabic. nice love story. and good end. and the clue of these story is special abut the first confused love. "

" After this tale, i'll sure read more of D. H. Lawrence. Loved his writting skills and ability to keep you interested all along the way. "

" Deft and defying. This book blends surrealism and magic almost uninterruptedly with the complexity of emotions and life. I <3 it. "

" Loved the book. This is for any woman who has had to curb her natural urge to go against the grain. "

" One I read some time ago, probably a decade past, at my uncle's house over the holidays, hence my noting it here. The more interesting, general question is: what books have we read, but that we have forgotten entirely? Were they so average? "

" D.H. Lawrence is the master of psychoanalysis. Though he hated Freud and the likes of him. "
