Read the following excerpt from Sons and Lovers by D. H. Lawrence:
Mrs. Morel was alone, but she was used to it. Her son and
her little girl slept upstairs; so, it seemed, her home was
there behind her, fixed and stable. But she felt wretched
with the coming child. The world seemed a dreary place,
where nothing else would happen for her-at least until
William grew up. But for herself, nothing but this dreary
endurance-till the children grew up. And the children! She
could not afford to have this third. She did not want it
She despised (her husband), and was tied to him. This
coming child was too much for her. If it were not for
William and Annie, she was sick of it, the struggle with
poverty and ugliness and meanness.
