Three generations of the Brangwen family - Nottingham - coal - Tom - polish widow for his wife - her daughter, Anna - weds William - Ursula, their daughter - infatuation with female teacher - Skrebensky, Ursula's lover - declines marriage - last sentence: She saw in the rainbow the earth's new architecture, the old, brittle corruption of houses and factories swept away, the world built up in the living fabric of Truth, fitting to the over-arching heaven.
Much of Lawrence's writing focuses on sexual relationships including same-sex encounters. This parallels the lives of many of his friends. Women in Love, Lawrence's next novel continues with the story of Ursula Brangwen and her sister, Gudrun.
Glad I have finished this assignment. Plan to take a long break from the works of D H Lawrence.
