Twelve high standard Lawrence stories. I'm getting so elderly that I forget them as soon as they've been read. The introduction by Richard Aldington is a help.

This is a collection of short stories by the English master. For me, there was too many ghosts and too much spiritualism in several of the stories. "The Woman Who Rode Away" was too far fetched for me. For a woman to ride into the wilds of Mexico searching for an Indian tribe stretched my imagination. The last story, "The Man Who Loved Islands", describes a man suffering from some form of mental illness who eventually cuts himself off from all people on his last island and Mother Nature does him with huge snow falls.

Classic lawrence short stories. The woman who road away reads like an ealy draft for the wonderful Plummed Serpent ( )
