Kangaroo

David Herbert Lawrence's novel Kangaroo was written and published in 1923. The environment is New Wales, and a writer (Richard Lovat Somers) embarks on a journey with his wife Harriet. Within the work we find several characters including, in fact, Canguro, the nickname of Benjamin Cooley (lawyer, and head of a secret fascist organization) and Willie Struthers, a progressive and communist activist ... The novel includes persuasion that seem inspired by the human story of David Herbert Lawrence, so by some critics "Kangaroo" has been defined an almost autobiographical literary work.
