The Fox is a short novel written by D. H. Lawrence, first published in 1923. The story is set in rural England during World War I and centers around two women, Banford and March, who live together on a farm. Banford is a middle-aged widow who runs the farm, while March is a young woman who helps her with the work.The two women are close friends, but their relationship is complicated by the arrival of a young man named Henry Grenfel, who is on leave from the army. Banford is attracted to Henry, but he becomes infatuated with March. The situation is further complicated when a fox begins to raid the farm, and the women and Henry set out to hunt it down.As the hunt progresses, tensions between the characters rise, and they are forced to confront their feelings for one another. The Fox is a powerful exploration of love, jealousy, and desire, set against the backdrop of a changing world. Lawrence's writing is lyrical and evocative, capturing the beauty and brutality of the English countryside with equal skill. The novel is a classic of modernist literature and remains a compelling read today.She took her gun again and went to look for the fox. For he had lifted his eyes upon her, and his knowing look seemed to have entered her brain. She did not so much think of him: she was possessed by him. She saw his dark, shrewd, unabashed eye looking into her, knowing her. She felt him invisibly master her spirit. She knew the way he lowered his chin as he looked up, she knew his muzzle, the golden brown, and the greyish white. And again she saw him glance over his shoulder at her, half inviting, half contemptuous and cunning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
