内容简介

"They're my houses, those two," said the mother-in-law. "And not clear either. It's as much as I can do to keep the mortgage interest paid." Gertrude sat white and silent. She was her father now. -- "Then we ought to be paying you rent," she said coldly. -- "Walter is paying me rent," replied the mother. -- "And what rent?" asked Gertrude. -- "Six and six a week," retorted the mother. It was more than the house was worth. Gertrude held her head erect, looked straight before her. -- "It is lucky to be you," said the elder woman, bitingly, "to have a husband as takes all the worry of the money, and leaves you a free hand." The young wife was silent. She said very little to her husband, but her manner had changed towards him. Something in her proud, honorable soul had crystallized out hard as rock.

作者简介

戴·赫·劳伦斯，（David Herbert Lawrence，1885～1930）英国诗人、小说家、散文家。出生于矿工家庭，当过屠户会计、厂商雇员和小学教师，曾在国内外漂泊十多年，对现实抱批判否定态度。他写过诗，但主要写长篇小说，共有10部，最著名的为《虹》（1915）、《爱恋中的女人》（1921）和《查太莱夫人的情人》（1928）。

劳伦斯生于1885年。父亲是矿工，缺少教育；母亲出身上流社会，有良好的修养。这种文化上的差异，使他们经常吵吵闹闹。但这种差异使劳伦斯从父亲那里得到了丰富的社会经验，从母亲那里至高无上的关怀。也许是母亲过分溺爱，劳伦斯有严重的恋母情结。他在给朋友的信中说：“我们相互爱着，几乎像丈夫跟妻子那样的爱，同时又是母亲与儿子的爱。我们俩就像一个人，彼此那样敏感，我们之间不要语言。这挺可怕，弄得我有些方面不正常。”

劳伦斯是最富想象力的作家，他如不过早地逝世，肯定会有更惊世的作品问世，也许更会被列为禁书。
