Love Among the Haystacks and Other Stories gathers together all of Lawrence's short stories not collected in the Prussian Officer volume. It offers a range of work from Lawrence's earliest surviving published story, 'A Prelude', to 'New Eve and Old Adam' written at the height of his early maturity in 1913. Each story in this edition appears in a new, authoritative text based on the manuscripts, typescripts, corrected proofs and early printings drawn from libraries and private collections in England, Italy and America. All the stories have thus been stripped of the layers of errors introduced by typists, editors and printers in their previous publication. John Worthen's introduction sets out the composition and publication history of each story, and gives a full account of the context in which it was created. A textual apparatus records all variant readings and explanatory notes explain allusions, dialect forms and foreign words.

The narrative unfolds further in the saga of The Drover's Curse, delving deeper into the lives of its characters as they navigate challenges and confront their pasts. Themes of resilience, redemption, and the harsh realities of life on the frontier are explored, highlighting the struggles and triumphs of those affected by the curse. Richly drawn landscapes and vivid character arcs enhance the emotional depth of the story, making it a compelling continuation of this gripping tale.
