Her intensity and intimacy are engaging Blake Morrison, GuardianA lovely, urgent, serious book Tessa HadleyRefreshing and unexpected Daisy Hay, Financial TimesBrilliantly interweaving literary criticism, biography and memoir, Look! We Have Come Through! is a captivating exhumation of an author and a compelling manifesto for exposing ourselves to difficult and dangerous views.Lara Feigel listens to birds outside her window their circling, strident calls and thinks of D. H. Lawrence. It is the spring of 2020 and, as the pandemic takes hold, she locks down in rural Oxfordshire with her partner, her two children, and that most explosive of writers.Proceeding month by month through the year, she sets out to start again with Lawrence to find vital literary companionship to use him as a guide to rural living and even, unexpectedly, to childrearing to find a way through his writing to excavate the modern world she feels he helped bring into being. Tracing the arc of Lawrences life and delving deep into his writings, she confronts his anger, his passion, his tumultuous vitality. In the process, she faces some of todays most urgent dilemmas, from secular religion to the climate crisis, from sex and sexuality to feminisms ideas about motherhood. And, as she watches the seasons change alongside Lawrence, Feigel finds the rhythms of her own life shifting in unexpected ways.
