New D.H. Lawrence Radio Series Recorded at Eastwood Museum
The museum, on Victoria Street, Eastwood provided the setting for episode two of the new series, presented by Michael Symmons Roberts called Artworks, Three Faces of D.H. Lawrence.
The series examines three facets of one of the UK’s greatest but also most controversial writers, D.H. Lawrence.
The second episode in the series, on the theme of class, explores the important role that class played in Lawrence’s life and work.
Carolyn Melbourne, Museum and Collections Officer said: “It’s fantastic that there is still so much interest in Lawrence outside of the local area. It was a real honour to have such an interesting programme about his life recorded at our humble museum.”
The full series is available on demand on the BBC website.
The D.H. Lawrence Birthplace Museum is where this literary legend was born on 11 September 1885. Only 30 minutes from Nottingham city centre, the Museum is a must see for fans of literature, and for those wanting to delve deeper into Nottingham’s literary heritage.
Step back in time to experience the traditional Victorian wash house, see the parlour; a room only for special guests, and have a wander around the parental and other bedrooms. The museum’s permanent exhibition features items from Lawrence’s family and even paintings created by the author himself.
