In these impressions of the Italian countryside, DH Lawrence transforms ordinary incidents into passages of intense beauty. ` Twilight in Italy` is a vibrant account of Lawrence`s stay among the people of Lake Garda, whose decaying lemon gardens bear witness to the twilight of a way of life centuries old. In ` Sea & Sardinia`, Lawrence brings to life the vigorous spontaneity of a society as yet untouched by the deadening effect of industrialization. & ` Etruscan Places` is a beautiful & delicate work of literary art, the record of ”a dying man drinking from the founts of a civilization dedicated to life.” A gorgeous celebration of a great writer & a incredible country. ...
