Answer: Lawrence
D.H. Lawrence wrote 'Lady Chatterley's Lover' which was once banned.

Counsel for the prosecution, Mervyn Griffith-Jones, caused considerable mirth when he asked the jury if they would wish their servants to read the book!

M.C. Beaton is a British author who has become very popular over the past ten years, and is the creator of Hamish Macbeth and Agatha Raisin. There's a TV series about Hamish, but it's not as good as the books!
