Summary
Constance Chatterley seeks to escape from the confines of a loveless marriage and the upper class surroundings that suffocate her. When she meets the gamekeeper of Chatterley mansion, Oliver Mellors, she is mesmerised and infatuated by his no-nonsense demeanour and passionate touch. The two soon forge a profound bond as a result of their sexual compatibility and sociopolitical views.
Banned until 1960, Lady Chatterley's Lover caused great controversy at the time it was written and was rejected for portraying what was then considered audacious, pornographic content. Of course critical opinion has evolved, and we have now come to see D. H. Lawrence's story as a revolutionary tale and literary masterpiece.
Lydia West (It’s a Sin, Years and Years) gives a breathtaking performance of the timeless classic.

Perhaps it was something in days when written
I didn’t find the story or storyline interesting. I know it was infamous in its time but perhaps the times have moved on. Not a gripping story though the narration was OK

Sad love story
The story is really good and I enjoyed listening. The only thing I didn’t like was the reader is too relaxed hence it takes too long to find out what happened next but thanks to technology, I listened at a higher speed which then sounds normal.
Good listen though.

Awful narration
What a bizarre collection of strange accents this poor narrator tries on, often rather randomly it seems. She has a light girlish ‘littul’ voice which is particularly inappropriate in the mouths of the upper class male characters. Even Connie herself never sounds convincing, and the ‘local’ accent is painfully wrong.
The book itself is so good - what a shame.

Very English
Really get your teeth into this. I couldn’t put it down, it was gripping, with English quotes and sayings.
