90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books

This small group of stories by D. H. Lawrence shows him in a number of moods. The hope is that in such a limited number of pages, the reader will come away with a compressed, rich sense of Lawrence's wonderful prose style, precision of language, and expansive vision of the human struggle and how it can be transcended.

Is Odour of Chrysanthemums perhaps the greatest of all English short stories?
