The Rainbow: Three Generations

Step into the rich, sensual world of the Brangwen family, where love, longing, and the search for self unfold against the changing landscape of rural England. This Modern Retelling of The Rainbow breathes fresh life into D. H. Lawrence’s epic saga of three generations—from farmer Tom Brangwen’s fateful marriage to a Polish widow, to his daughter Anna’s stormy union with Will, and finally to Ursula, a young woman daring to forge her own destiny in a world that seeks to confine her. Through triumphs and heartbreaks, these men and women yearn for a connection that transcends the ordinary, symbolised by the rainbow that arches over their lives—a promise of wholeness and hope. Faithful to the original’s beauty and depth, this edition brings the story alive for today’s reader without the barriers of dated language. Part of Timeless Classics.
