Summary "Sea and Sardinia" by D. H. Lawrence is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The book recounts Lawrence's journey through Sicily and his subsequent exploration of the lesser-known island of Sardinia. It combines elements of poetic observation with personal reflection, delving into the intricacies of landscape, culture, and the human condition. At the start of the narrative, the author expresses an urgent desire to escape Sicily, drawn by a mystical allure towards Sardinia, which he perceives as untamed and less defined by historical civilizations. He describes the enchanting views of Etna and the Ionian Sea, juxtaposed with a sense of longing and restlessness that compels him to leave. The opening portion vividly paints scenes of Sicilian life, capturing the local atmosphere, the bizarre and tender interactions among the people, as well as the beauty and chaos of nature surrounding him. Lawrence’s descriptive style immerses the reader in a sensory experience, setting the stage for his reflections on humanity and the essence of freedom that he seeks through travel.
