Letter from Xiao Qian to E.M. Forster ; 25 Nov. 1943.
"He [D.H. Lawrence] has made me so unhappy, this hairy misanthropist. I have just read one of the dehydrated Lawrence, the Fantasia : he must have been very bitter when writing it. I did enjoy A man who died which even reminded me of the Castle of Kafka. But so many of his characters are mere pegs on which hung all his queer ideas about life and the universe."
