D. H. Lawrence - O Raposo

"My great religion is to believe that blood, flesh, is wiser than intelligence." This appreciation of the body and its instincts, which he relentlessly carried into literature, even bothered the guardians of the Victorian mentality; the one that persisted, after Victoria, in determining behaviors that preserved the moral health of the English.
In 1923, Lawrence published "The Fox," one of his most celebrated stories, permeated by an energy focused on lesbian love; but perhaps his most pessimistic literary work on the viability of love between women, and love between a man and a woman. The one that seems to deny either of these unions a right to a response to its revered example: the "fusion" of David and Jonathan.
