Odour of Chrysanthemums
Author(s): D. H. Lawrence
'Was this what it all meant - utter, intact separateness, obscured by heat of living?' D. H. Lawrence's short stories portray complex, flawed interior lives, showing individuals facing momentous emotional events. In these two stories of fragile happiness and failed dreams, a tragedy forces a woman to acknowledge that she has never known her husband, and a man blinded in the First World War discovers an unexpected peace. This book includes "Odour of Chrysanthemums" and "The Blind Man".
