H. LawrenceNarrated by Patrick BarkerLawrences first novel tells the tale of a love triangle between Lettie Beardsall and her neighbours, George Saxton, son of a farmer, and Leslie Tempest, the local mine owners son. Lettie will marry Leslie, but remain sexually attracted George. George also marries but falls victim to alcohol. Inspired by Maurice Greiffenhagens painting An Idyll, The White Peacock is both a romance and a novel about class and the industrialisation of the English countryside that draws on Lawrences youth. Though it bears traces of his apprenticeship as a novelist, The White Peacock is a mature work that anticipates the psychological themes of Sons and Lovers and the gamekeeper character of Lady Chatterleys Lover.Production copyright 2021 Voices of TodayContact: [email protected]
