The Rainbow is a 1915 novel by British author D. H. Lawrence. It follows three generations of the Brangwen family, particularly focusing on the sexual dynamics of, and relations between, the characters.Lawrence's frank treatment of sexual desire and the power plays within relationships as a natural and even spiritual force of life, though perhaps tame by modern standards, caused The Rainbow to be prosecuted in an obscenity trial in late 1915, as a result of which all copies were seized and burnt. After this ban it was unavailable in Britain for 11 years, although editions were available in the USA.The Rainbow was followed by a sequel in 1920, Women in Love. Although Lawrence conceived of the two novels as one, considering the titles The Sisters and The Wedding Ring for the work, they were published as two separate novels at the urging of his publisher. However, after the negative public reception of The Rainbow, Lawrence's publisher opted out of publishing the sequel. This is the cause of the delay in the publishing of the sequel.

This edition includes 10 illustrations. D.H. Lawrence often portrays individuals struggling against the confines of their social environments, and The Rainbow, his powerful precursor to Women in Love, is one of his most famous examples. While the story follows three generations of the Brangwen family, its most scandalous portion details the struggles of a passionate heroine, Ursula, as she pursues her education, and her heart, yet struggles to find fulfillment. Modern readers likely won’t flinch at the mild depictions of lust and sexuality within this 1915 volume, but it was so suggestive at the time of its publishing that every copy in England was burned.
