The Fox; The Captain's Doll; The Ladybird
Three novellas, originally published together in 1923, they all feature a favourite Lawrence theme, the love triangle. The Captain’s Doll is set in Germany and tells the story of a German aristocrat who begins an intimate relationship with an English army officer only for the officer’s wife to appear. The Fox concerns two spinster sisters who run a farm together. When a young man begins working on the farm he upsets the balance the sisters have contrived in order to lead their lives as peacefully as they can.
