When first published privately in Italy, in 1928, "Lady Chatterly's Lover" was too risque for readers and was considered unprintable.

This book is the best and worst of novels. The writing is extraordinarily beautiful, lyrical, and even educational. DH Lawence has a way with words that is next to none. Yet, this story - I hate to admit it - is boring. I typically love the classics. It is generally all I read. This book is boring me to my core. I'll finish it eventually, but not with my normal zest for a literary classic.
