"11. July 1915". Lawrence antwortet in seinem Schreiben auf einen Leserbrief bzgl. seiner 1914 erschienenen Kurzgeschichte der Preußische Offizier "Dear Sir, Thank you for your lettering regarding the spelling in the Prussian Officer. The difficulty is, that one reads with the eye, as well as with the ear...Think how many people can read Molière with pleasure, who wouldn´t understand a word of it on the stage, through hearing...".

D. H. Lawrence war einer der ersten bedeutenden Schriftsteller in der englischen Literatur des 20. Jhs., der aus einfachen Verhältnissen stammte. Sein stark autobiographisch geprägtes und kontroverses Werk umfasst zahlreiche Gedichte, Romane und Theaterstücke und wurde in England teilw. wegen erotischer Freizügigkeiten kritisiert und verboten. 1914 heiratete Lawrence Frieda von Richthofen (1879-1956), eine entfernte Verwandte von Manfred von Richthofen, die für ihn ihren Mann und seinen ehemaligen Professor am Nottingham University College Ernest Weekly (1865-1954) sowie ihre drei Kinder verlies.
Signed autograph letter by the English writer D. H. Lawrence to a reader, dated 1915. Minor perforated.
