"Joachim Hensch reads from 'Lady Chatterley's Lover'"
Description
Lady Constance Chatterley is happily married. But when he returns from the First World War paralyzed and no longer capable of physical intimacy, he withdraws further and further into himself and rejects Constance. The lonely young woman then meets the gamekeeper Oliver Mellors, befriends him, and soon an affair develops between them. However, the difference in their social standing is significant, and when their relationship is threatened with exposure, Constance must choose between her love and societal expectations
In his reading, Joachim Hensch makes it clear how young this almost hundred-year-old novel has remained, which played such an important role in the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
