恋爱中的女人：WOMEN IN LOVE(英文版)

   Women in Love is a novel by British author D. H. Lawrence, privately printed in 1920 and published commercially in 1921. Following the characters Lawrence had created for The Rainbow (1915), Women in Love examines the ill effects of industrialization on the human psyche, resolving that individual and collective rebirth is possible only through human intensity and passion.    The novel contrasts the love affair of Rupert Birkin and Ursula Brangwen with that of Gudrun, Ursula’s artistic sister, and Gerald Crich, a domineering industrialist. Rupert, an introspective misanthrope, struggles to reconcile his metaphysical drive for self-fulfillment with Ursula’s practical view of sentimental passion. Their love affair and eventual marriage are set as a positive antithesis to the destructive relationship of Gudrun and Gerald.    The novel also explores the relationship between Rupert and Gerald. According to critics, Rupert is a self-portrait of Lawrence, and Ursula represents Lawrence’s wife, Frieda.    The novel has also been adapted into some film and Television editions. In 1999, the Modern Library ranked Women in Love forty-ninth on a list of the 100 best novels in English of the 20th century.
