Neil Roberts’s Sons and Lovers: The Biography of a Novel was recently reviewed in The London Magazine: “Roberts’s fine-tuned critical savvy will delight both the lay reader and the D. H. Lawrence specialist as it strikes a fine balance between readability and archival examination of sources…. Compellingly sketching in the heart-wrenching conflicts that both paradoxically dampened and energized Lawrence’s life during the writing of Sons and Lovers, Roberts also gives the reader a fascinating portrayal of the cultural background of the period.”
