He is not only a turn-of-the-century social reformer, but also an artist deeply concerned with human relationships. His famouse work--Sons and Lovers (1994), describes the process of young Paul's growth with young Lawrence's personal life as the model. The present paper, first of all, gives a brief introduction of the novel. Then the three forms of unreal love in the story are what the present paper mainly explored. Firstly, the love between Paul and his mother is a distorted love between a mother and a son. Secondly, the love between Paul and Miriam is an immature love of young people.

Creative nonfiction is coming of age, not simply as opposed to ficdon, but as respectable as good ficdon true to its name. Due attention should be drawn to this super-genre absorbing varied subject matter. This paper ...Creative nonfiction is coming of age, not simply as opposed to ficdon, but as respectable as good ficdon true to its name. Due attention should be drawn to this super-genre absorbing varied subject matter. This paper looks into creative nonfiction as a form of art with a let-its-hair-down attitude generally in line with the genre. Creative nonfiction is held to be a paradoxically generic term covering subcategories such as memoir, biography, autobiography, history, and journalism. Instead of being walled off from one another, these subcategories mix and match to build up a work of truth, or rather elusive truth, which might sound stranger than fiction. In addition to the imaginative mix and match to open up new possibilities for writing, felicity of style is another add-on to doing it well. Hence creative nonfiction is conceived as an adventure to wrap up a somewhat strange story in a serendipitous form as well as a felicitous language. Hopefully, this three- quarter profile of the genre will be able to offer a thin slice of the picture to the audience.展开更多
