David Herbert 'D. H.' Lawrence

Lawrence was an adept poet who wrote over 800 poems during his lifetime. At the beginning of his career, his poems were infused with pathetic fallacy and continual personification of flora and fauna.

However, the tragedy of World War I changed Lawrence's style dramatically.

Because of his frank and honest portrayal of human sexuality in the controversial works for which he is best known, e.g. "Lady Chatterley's Lover" and "Women in Love," D.H.
