The reread of DH Lawrence’s The Rainbow sends me back strangely to consider another read of Irene Baird’s pastoral Vancouver Island set novel John. (1937)

I think I left it too soon. Something in Lawrence’s early invocation of place in The Rainbow (1915) made me think of how Baird sets up her novel initially and now I must go back and read, the early part again to see where it sits.
