The story of Constance Chatterley's sexual awakening through her affair with Mellors the gamekeeper has remained one of the most controversial novels of the twentieth century. Frustrated and ensnared by her marriage to Clifford Chatterley, an invalid, Constance is deeply unhappy and unfulfilled. Her relationship with Mellors rekindles her sexual feelings and brings her back to life. She decides, however, to leave England to live with her sister Hilda and, though pregnant, she finds her own form of personal freedom.

Unpublished in Britain until 1960 following the notorious trial, Lady Chatterley's Lover is still considered to be an unsurpassed celebration of sexual love that broke new ground in its frankness and candour.
