| Evidence: | 'I have just read DH Lawrence's "Kangaroo". How I hated (in italics) it! Altho I think the Chapter about the War is well written, but it is so full of Spite, bitterness & nasty "cur" like ( in italics) snarly feeling. Odd again, for I never saw that side of him. have you read his "Letters"?' |

| It is important to remember the extent to which Ottoline Morrell was crushed by Lawrence's unflattering and loosely veiled references to her in Women in Love published in 1920. Her use of capital letters is not necessarily linked to this however, as this is a trait in her writing. |
