I wonder how many of you have read Lady Chatterley’s Lover written
by D H Lawrence. The uproar it caused when it was published in the UK was
enormous; court action was taken against it as it was seen, by some, as
obscene. Yet, by today’s standards, there is little in it which would cause
offence. When it became available in the UK, it was sold by bookshops wrapped
in brown paper.
Those of us who remember how things were 50 years or more ago should take the time to make their memories available to younger people. A world without the internet, without on screen games and where direct face to face conversation substituted for texts, emails and so called social media - was it better? Was it worse? Whichever, it was certainly different. PLEASE do add comments - thank you. Search this blog using the search box at the bottom or choose a topic from the labels on the right.
