What is BURNING MAN : the trials of d. h. lawrence about?
**Shortlisted for the James Tait Black Prize** **An electrifying, revelatory new biography of D. H. Lawrence, with a focus on his difficult middle years**"Never trust the teller," wrote D. H. Lawrence, "trust the tale." Everyone who knew him told stories about Lawrence, and Lawrence told stories about everyone he knew. He also told stories about himself, again and again: a pioneer of autofiction, no writer before Lawrence had made so permeable the border between life and literature. In __Burning Man: The Trials of D. H. Lawrence__, acclaimed biographer Frances Wilson tells a new story about the author, focusing on his decade of superhuman writing and travel between 1915, when __The Rainbow__ was suppressed following an obscenity trial, and 1925, when he was diagnosed with tuberculosis. Taking after Lawrence's own literary model, Dante, and adopting the structure of __The__ __Divine Comedy__, __Burning Man__ is a distinctly Lawrentian book, one that pursues Lawrence around the globe and reflects his life of wild allegory. Eschewing the confines of traditional biography, it offers a triptych of lesser-known episodes drawn from lesser-known sources, including tales of Lawrence as told
