David Herbert Lawrence (September 11, 1985 March 2, 1930) was an English writer. Much of Lawrences work was based off his family life which featured tension between his father, a coal mine worker, and his mother who was a schoolmistress. Lawrences opinions as well as the sexual content of some of his works made him a lot of enemies in his homeland and some of his novels were banned for many years. Lawrence and his wife left England after World War I and mostly traveled until Lawrence became ill and the couple finally settled in Florence, Italy. Lawrences best known works are Sons and Lovers, Women in Love, and Lady Chatterleys Lover. This edition of The Trespasser is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and includes illustrations of Lawrence.
