There were some writers began to communicate with eachother, and then their own writers group had been set up. That was the BloomsburyGroup, established by Leslie Stephen--the famous British biographer, and VirginiaWoolf’s father. This paper focuses on the British writer D H Lawrence who had aclose relation with this group. But later he left the group with acrimony, called it thecorrupt assembly of black beetles. At that time, the British literature was following theconsciousness style of James Joyce and Virginia Woolf mostly. However, D H Lawrence started the literary creation of his own character. Lawrence’s creations canbe classified as realistic themes. But, they are significantly different from the Balzac-led traditional realism in the mid19th century. There will be more in-depthunderstanding of the nature of Lawrence characteristics writing after detailed analysis.Lawrence’s literatures are based on the characters’ real inner, rather than thetypical character in a typical environment.
