Written at the height of D. H. Lawrence's creative energies, Twilight in Italy (1916) is composed of seven short pieces that sparkle with humour and lively sensory images that animate his fiction. Sea and Sardinia is the record of the week Lawrencespent on the island after he's been expelled from England, and Etruscan Places is the last of Lawrence's travel books, a chronicle of the trip he made shortly before his own death.
