Daughters of the Vicar was written by D.H. Lawrence in 1911. It was the 11th of his 67 short stories, all of which will be published individually in audiobook format by the Blackthorn Press.

Lawrence is at his best in this story, taken from the scenes of his childhood and based on characters he knew intimately. The main themes of the story are the class system that dominated society at the time and the pressures put on the young lovers who have to overcome it, and the position of women in society who have nothing to offer but their bodies. For the sake of security and position, one daughter makes a loveless marriage whilst the other daughter gives all that up for love.
