Literature at Lunchtime: The Rockinghorse Winner, by D.H.Lawrence

Our highly popular series of lunchtime lectures; brought to you by Dr Jane Mackay.

Penetrating insight, wit, warmth and humanity.

Another short work in which Lawrence drew rather viciously, on his friend Lady Cynthia Asquith and her small son.

Here he demolishes her world of acquisitiveness, of needing ‘stuff’, in a devastating indictment of upper class insensitivity.
