D.H. Lawrence was born in a working class family in 1885 when England was at the full development of its industry. His father was a coal-miner, so he knew what it was like to be poor. But his mother struggled hard to help her children get better chances than his father had. Lawrence became a teacher, and so escaped the mining world of his father. But he never forgot it. He wrote many stories about the life of the miner’s family, including his most famous novel Sons and Lovers, which is a portrait of Lawrence’s own life. Many of his stories and novels are on men who work down the mines He once said of the men in the coal mines: “Here in this terrible hell, the men are most happy.”He meant the comradeship of the miners, the fact that they lived simply, without wishes for power, without money, without health.
