Sons and Lovers. The basic plot line revolves around the powerful oedipal attachment developed by Paul Morel's clever, sensitive, frustrated mother, a coal miner's wife tied to a coarse, strong-willed, and occasionally brutal man. Ultimately it is the anti-oedipal story thread wound by Mrs. Morel's two younger rivals that rescues Paul, that and his mother's pathetic death.
