The Prussian Officer by David Herbert Lawrence (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Prussian Officer by David Herbert Lawrence Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In this classic story of sexual repression and tension that, when released, explodes into maddened violence, D. H. Lawrence examines the psychology of two men, both German soldiers. The captain, a Junker aristocrat, tall, muscular, and an expert horseman, is accustomed to domineering his soldiers just as he subjugates horses. He is, however, isolated from the vital life of other soldiers; fortyish and unmarried, he has had occasional mistresses but has always returned from their arms with greater tension and irritability after he resumes his military duties. Cold, impersonal, and harsh, he is subconsciously tormented by repressed homoerotic desire for his young orderly, Schoner, whose name means "more beautiful" in German, and whose vigorous physical presence is "like a warm flame on the older mans tense, rigid body." In the most extensive section of the story, Lawrence develops the theme of conflict between these men, who are locked in a fatal struggle for domination of both body and spirit. With mounting fury, the captain attempts to break down his orderlys will.
