Beautifully Written Travel Narrative 12 Mar 2005
By G. Messersmith - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
D.H. Lawrence is better known for his various novels, i.e., Women in Love; Lady Chatterly's Lover; and Sons and Lovers than for his travel writing. With that said, I highly recommend this book. Personally I love Lawrence's writing style and this particular book is exceptional even for Lawrence. You will feel as though you are there with him experiencing the moment he is describing. The people and places of Italy come alive through his prose. His writing moves, at times, from reality and physical descriptions to abstraction and philosophy, but it is so wonderfully written, you will cherish every word and never question the move from one to the other. Images abound in this work and the scenes he describes are beautifully sensual. I have read this work twice and plan on reading it numerous other times throughout my life.

Truly great writing 29 Jun 2009
By Constant Weeder - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I found myself reading, rereading, and rereading aloud, passages from this beautiful work. Lawrence writes poetically--never mind the sportswriters' rule against repeating the same word in a sentence ("Angels," "Seraphs," "Halos")--this author uses "dark" numerous times in a single paragraph. I felt as though I were in northern Italy with him. Incredible. Also recommended are his other travel works, such as Sea and Sardinia and Mornings in Mexico.

One of the greatst travel books ever written 13 Oct 2010
By Jamie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Much is said of D.H. Lawrence's fiction, but we've mostly forgotten about his amazing travel writing. Twilight in Italy takes us on a foot tour of the Alps all the way down into the verdant gardens and sun soaked plaza's of Italy. Lawrence, as always, finds small stories here and there that not only share a sense of place but also relate the experience of a real traveler. If you are a fan of Paul Theroux or Pico Iyer you will immediately feel at home with this book.
