Dark, but filled with bright genius, Women in Love is a prophetic masterpiece steeped in eroticism, filled with perceptions about sexual power and obsession that have proven to be timeless and true.

I'm glad I did persevere to finish this book, although there were several times when I felt like giving up, that I was putting in a lot of effort for minimal reward.

I found the relationship between Gerald and Birkin to be the high point of this book. Their conversations seemed to me to be the most alive, whereas those between the women and these men were frequently repetitive and overly melodramatic. And, to be honest, I struggled to understand what the sisters Ursula and Gudrun actually found attractive in either man. However Lawrence's view of the roles of women and men are very much of a time and of a class and, as such, it was interesting to discover his perspective.
