Sudopod Episode 792 for January 7th, 2022. The Rocking Horse winner by D.H. Lawrence.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing okay. I'm Kat, Assistant Editor at Sudopod

and you're host for this week. And I'm excited to tell you that for this episode,

we have a public domain showcase story for you. The Rocking Horse winner by D.H. Lawrence.

D.H. Lawrence was an English writer and poet. He's probably best known for his 1928 novel,

Lady Shattery's Lover, which contains swearing and explicit descriptions of sexual acts

and describes a relationship between a working-class man and an upper-class woman,

under the Obscene Publications Act of 1959. Lawrence's collected works include,

among other things, an extended reflection on the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation,

which made him few friends in the establishment at the time. A many considered he'd squandered

his talents on pornography. His work would be re-evaluated in time, of course,

and now his imagination and moral seriousness are widely acknowledged.
