About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Viking Penguin - Virago Press, 1987. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5" x 7 1/2. 382 Pages. This is the Cambridge Edition of the text of Mr Noon now correctly established from the original sources and first published in 1984. This is a reprint of the 1985 edition published in England by Granada. .The Appendix contains Maps, Note on the Text, and Chronology. Minor moisture stains at top of last ten pages. Front cover has edge wear and turned up corner. Introduction by Melvyn Bragg. Edited by Lindeth Vasey. This is Lawrence's autobiographical novel of a young man's emotional and sexual awakening. For decades Mr. Noon was known only as a long short story in which Gilbert Noon, a young schoolmaster and one of Lawrence's alter egos, becomes entangled with a young girl and loses his job. It ends with Gilbert deciding to leave the stifling morality of his provincial village. But Gilbert's story was continued in a manuscript that was lost until 1972. In it he travels to German and falls in love with a married woman, clearly modeled on Frieda Lawrence, and elopes with her to Italy. In some ways it is a sequel to Sons and Lovers.
