Abstract:D. H. Lawrence is one of the greatest English novelists of the 20th century, and he paid close attention to human relationships under the background of his time. He was a very original, but also a very controversial writer. Sons and lovers is the most autobiographical of all Lawrence's works as the author himself had a similar relationship with his own mother. It tells the story of The Morels. When first published, Sons and Lovers was criticized for its obscenity and one publisher called it the dirtiest book he had ever read. But in 1999, the Modern Library ranked it ninth on a list of the 100 novels in English of the 20th century. The Oedipus complex in this book has been greatly studied by many scholars. And also scholars read it in terms of the concept of love, the relationship between man and woman, and the relationship between sex and spirit and so on .This thesis focuses on the complicated relationship among son and mother and lover, giving a detailed explanation of their roles in every situation. We believe it will help readers better understand D. H. Lawrence and his books.
