"In his introduction, James Lasdun discusses the theme of liberation and the ways in which it is conveyed in these works. Using the restored texts of the Cambridge edition, this volume includes further reading, a new chronology and notes by Paul Poplawski."--BOOK JACKET.
In 'The Woman Who Rode Away' a woman's religious quest in Mexico brings great danger - and astonishing self-discovery, while 'The Princess' portrays the intimacy between an aloof woman and her male guide as she ventures into the wilderness of New Mexico in search of new experiences.".
"These three works, all written in 1924, explore profound psychological voyages of liberation. In 'St. Mawr', Lou Witt buys a beautiful, untamable bay stallion and discovers an intense emotional affinity with the horse that she cannot feel with her husband. This superb novella displays Lawrence's mastery of satirical comedy in a scathing depiction of London's fashionable high society.
