Sharply observed and expertly constructed, D.H. Lawrence's The Fox is a captivating work exploring the dual themes of power and supremacy in the aftermath of the First World War. Banford and March live and work together on their meagre farm, surviving hardship only by sheer determination and dedicated labour. The farm is their world and a place of safety - that is, until a young soldier walks in and upsets the women's delicate status quo. None could have predicted quite the effect his presence would have on their lives.
