The Princess is a short story by the English author D. H. Lawrence. He wrote it in September and October 1924 during a stay at the Kiowa Ranch in New Mexico. The story was first published in installments in the March, April and May 1925 issues of the Calendar of Modern Letters. It was then printed as a book, along with St Mawr, by Martin Secker on 14 May 1925. The chronicle of a girl's life before and after the death of her father, and its many ups and downs have been presented here. Her subsequent affection for her male escort has been beautifully penned by Lawrence. Unveiling the struggle for survival waged by a woman, this is a brilliant work that reveals the author's true genius and delineation of characters.

劳伦斯作为英国20世纪杰出的小说家,以描写人尤其是女性的性心理和性意识而闻名。小说《公主》"暴露了现代机械文明和原始主义情结之间的激烈冲突,揭示了工业制度对性意识的严重摧残。"悲剧的结尾使人警醒,不要让文明麻痹了真实的情感,不要扭曲本能的渴望,不要拒绝和社会的沟通交流。作者呼吁人们回归真实,自然的本性,使精神和肉体达到平衡。
