I loved this book so much I found it hard to put down, it flowed well, although the language of the north of England was more difficult to read as it was in the vanacular, made it necessary to the story. Found the life within the characters quite believable as with the class divide, although some of the characters were quite annoying but this probably my interpretation of them rather than the authors, I was stunned at the latter end of the story, I felt it was quite an abrupt ending to the saga and expected something else, maybe Clifford regaining the use of his legs, or Mellors nearly dying from pneumonia, and maybe then Connie would make a decision on two men both being able bodied, but with hindsight I guess What I really desired was for Connie and Mellors to come together at the end.
