This short story collection represents Lawrence's first ever published body of work, containing twelve brilliant and engaging short stories.
The titular 'Prussian Officer' is a gambler, drinker, and serial womaniser who has wasted his youth. He finds himself alone in the world with no wife to return home to.
He is profoundly jealous of his young orderly, a vibrant young man with a beautiful wife, whose happiness raises violent feelings in his commanding officer.
Throughout this engaging short story, sexual tensions give rise to violent outbursts of masculine domination.
Other short stories, such as 'A Fragment of Stained Glass' and 'Daughters of a Vicar', weave individuality, happiness, and failure among the divine forces of nature to create works of profound beauty and sensitivity.
It is a deeply poignant collection of violence, sexuality, and repression that is perfect reading for any lovers of the early modernist movement.
