‘Paul Morel’ is made up of the second and third drafts of the book later to become ‘Sons and Lovers’. The first draft is lost. Lawrence worked on these drafts during 1911.There is much that is familiar but also much that is new. There are scenes from Lawrence’s early childhood, characters who do not appear in ‘Sons and Lovers’ and events which were perhaps seen as ‘over dramatic’ and discarded from the finished novel. The work is clearly less polished than ‘Sons and Lovers’ but is more energetic, in places more humorous and full of telling detail. There are gaps in ‘Paul Morel’ and the two extant drafts have been blended to make a coherent whole.
‘Matilda’ is a fragment begun by Lawrence in 1910. Elements of it can be found in ‘Paul Morel’ and ‘Sons and Lovers’.
