Lady Chatterley’s Lover by D. H. Lawrence

A landmark, first UK edition of Lady Chatterley’s Lover in near fine condition. Until November 1960 British people were prevented from reading the novel by a law that criminalised the publication of writing considered indecent and immoral. Penguin Books successfully challenged the Obscene Publications Act and 200,000 copies were sold on the first day of publication. Original paper covers in near fine condition. Toned contents in excellent condition. 8vo. 317pp
