About This Item
Second edition of rare Russian translation.
Lifetime edition.
First Russian edition of Sons and Lovers (1913) was issued in Leningrad in 1927. Translation was prepared by poet and writer Nikolay Chukovsky (1904-1965), the son of Korney Chukovsky, one of the most popular Russian children's poets. This talented translation is practically unknown nowadays.
In 1929 Chukovsky's version was reprinted in Riga without the translator's name as a pirate edition.
In 1999 Sons and Lovers was selected by the Modern Library 'as one of the 100 best novels in English of the 20th century'.
There is no information about this edition in The Reception of D.H. Lawrence in Europe (Edited by C. Jansohn and D. Mehl. Continuum, 2007).
OCLC locates two copies of this edition: in the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the University of Alberta Libraries.
