August 21, 2010 - 10:00 amD.H. Lawrence is better known for his various novels, i.e., Women in Love; Lady Chatterly’s Lover; and Sons and Lovers than for his travel writing. With that said, I highly recommend this book. Personally I love Lawrence’s writing style and this particular book is exceptional even for Lawrence. You will feel as though you are there with him experiencing the moment he is describing. The people and places of Italy come alive through his prose. His writing moves, at times, from reality and physical descriptions to abstraction and philosophy, but it is so wonderfully written, you will cherish every word and never question the move from one to the other. Images abound in this work and the scenes he describes are beautifully sensual. I have read this work twice and plan on reading it numerous other times throughout my life.

August 21, 2010 - 10:36 amI found myself reading, rereading, and rereading aloud, passages from this beautiful work. Lawrence writes poetically–never mind the sportswriters’ rule against repeating the same word in a sentence (“Angels,” “Seraphs,” “Halos”)–this author uses “dark” numerous times in a single paragraph. I felt as though I were in northern Italy with him. Incredible. Also recommended are his other travel works, such as Sea and Sardinia and Mornings in Mexico.
