Aaron's Rod Summary:
| There was a large, brilliant evening star in the early twilight, and underfoot the earth was half frozen. It was Christmas Eve. Also the War was over, and there was a sense of relief that was almost a new menace. A man felt the violence of the nightmare released now into the general air. Also there had been another wrangle among the men on the pit-bank that evening. Aaron Sisson was the last man on the little black railway-line climbing the hill home from work. He was late because he had attended a meeting of the men on the bank. He was secretary to the Miners Union for his colliery, and had heard a good deal of silly wrangling that left him nettled. |

| Lawrence's 1922 novel explores the ideas of Nietzsche through the character of Aaron Sisson, a coal minor and amateur flautist who dreams of greater things. Sisson, who abandons his wife and children, journeys through the intellectual and artistic circles of Italy, and ultimately finds redemption in the arms of an older woman. |
