Dyer Geoff - Out Of Sheer Rage Wrestling With D. H. Lawrence - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Geoff Dyer had always wanted to write a book about D. H. Lawrence. He wanted in fact to write his " Lawrence book." The problem was he had no idea what his " Lawrence book" would be though he was determined to write a "sober academic study." Luckily for the reader he failed miserably. Out of Sheer Rage is a harrowing comic and grand act of literary deferral. At times a furious repudiation of the act of writing itself this is not so much a book about Lawrence as a book about writing a book about Lawrence. As Lawrence wrote about his own study of Thomas Hardy " It will be about anything but Thomas Hardy I am afraid - queer stuff - but not bad."
