Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Prussian Officer" by D. H. Lawrence is a collection of short stories published in 1914. The title story explores the dark psychological tension between a German military captain and his young orderly. As the captain's unexpressed desires manifest in cruelty and abuse, their relationship spirals toward a violent confrontation in an isolated forest. The collection features twelve stories that examine human relationships, desire, and the complexities of working-class life in early twentieth-century England.
