In 1932 two years after D. H. Lawrences death a young woman wrote a book about him and presented it to a Paris publisher. She recorded the event in her diary It will not be published and out by tomorrow which is what a writer would like when the book is hot out of the oven when it is alive within oneself. He gave it to his assistant to revise. The woman was Anas Nin. Nin examined Lawrences poetry novels essays and travel writing. She analyzed and explained the more important philosophical concepts contained in his writings particularly the themes of love death and religion as well as his attention to primitivism and to women. But what Anas Nin brought to the explication of Lawrences writing was an understanding of the fusion of imaginative intuitive and intellectual elements from which he drew his characters themes imagery and symbolism.
