Sinopsis

Nellie March and Jill Banford manage an ailing Berkshire farm at the time of the First World War, a task which is made all the more complicated by the frequent rampages of a local fox through their chicken coop. When a young soldier turns up and begins to interfere with the farm and the lives of the two women, they must find ways to react to this new fox in their midst.

A compelling study of the question of power, gender and sexuality, as well as a realistic portrayal of war­time rural England, The Fox showcases Lawrence's inimitable gift for psychological observation and dramatic description.
