Thee Characteristics of Class Struggle in Lady Chatterley's Lover

The importance of physical love is being stressed upon. The main character in the novel - Lady Chatterley is madly in love with the gamekeeper and the book portrays sexual attraction and action which were far ahead of the times. Lady Chatterley was worried about her body and was not fully satisfied with its condition. She was also feeling that she was growing comparatively old and not getting the benefit from it. It is also clear that she had utilized her body beyond the usual and permitted affairs early on. This is all pure conjecture as there is no evidence for this belief. (Lady Chatterley's Lover) The novel shows that it is the women who have doubts about the suitability of a man for her. This may be the feeling of some women, but historically it is the women who are supposed to be frail and emotional. (Lady Chatterley's Lover) The novel also shows that the woman has also made a mistake â€" falling in love with a married man. These show the conditions in those days when it was not so easy for getting a divorce and also subsisting after that. .

             Let us remember that all authors plan their books before they start writing it, and writing of books does not go on with the advent of God. This makes it clear that the author had planned the book to be about the physical demand of women when their husbands became disabled. This is clear in the introduction of the lady when the author says "She married Clifford Chatterley in 1917, when he was on home for leave. They had a month's honeymoon. Then he went back to Flanders; to be shipped over to England six months later more or less in bits." (Lady Chatterley's Lover by David Herbert Lawrence (1885-1930): Chapter 1) .

             This shows that the lady was almost a widow at the start of the book. Now let us look at the society then. Remember that this was a society that fined a street trader in Blackpool for two guineas for selling "lewd and disgusting" photographs which were put inside white envelopes.
