Lawrence wrote 'St Mawr' in the spring of 1924 and it was published in the following year. F. R. Leavis described the novella as presenting 'a creative and technical originality more remarkable than that of 'The Waste Land' 'St Mawr' is a stallion which seems beyond control but is kept by a rich young American girl and her mother who see the horse as 'some living background into which she wanted to retreat' from the 'battle of the wills'. But they are defeated and rejecteed by society and return with the horse to America.
