Plot summary
Constance Chatterley is the wife of Sir Clifford Chatterley, a baronet left impotent and crippled by his war service. Clifford consents, even encourages, her seeking other means of satisfying her physical desires, and would accept a child of hers as his heir. At their estate, Connie watches Oliver Mellors, the gamekeeper, washing at his hut and is attracted to him. Class differences stand between them, since he is a laborer and she a member of the aristocracy, and he resents her intrusion. She approaches him at the hut again, ostensibly to look at newly hatched birds, and the two begin a physical relationship.
