Contents:

Lawrence, adaptation and the fluid text -- Perennial chrysanthemums : adapting the fluid text -- Adaptation and genre : "The horse-dealer's daughter' as a Western -- "The rocking-horse winner' in five genres.

Summary: This book looks beyond fidelity to emphasize how each adaptation of D.H. Lawrence's short stories functions as a creative response to a text, foregrounding the significance of its fluidity, transtextuality, and genre. The adaptations analysed range from the first to the most recent and draw attention to the fluidity of textual sources, the significance of generic conventions and space in film, the generic potentialities latent within Lawrence's tales, and the evolving nature of adaptation. By engaging with recent advances in adaptation theory to discuss the evolving critical reception of the author's work and the role of the reader, this book provides a fresh, forward-looking approach to Lawrence studies.
