There is only physical union between the couple in the novel, but no spiritual communication or soul resonance.
My father is a muddy coal miner, greedy for drink, vulgar, and often ignores family affairs and the future of his children.
My mother was born in the middle class and received education. She was deeply worried about marrying an ordinary miner until she completely despaired of her husband.
Therefore, she transferred her time, energy and all her spiritual hopes to her eldest son William and her second son Paul, who were born as a result of physical union.
She tried her best to prevent her sons from following in the footsteps of their father and digging coal in wells; she tried every means to urge them to jump out of the circle of lower class people, stand out, and realize the spiritual pursuit that she had not been able to achieve in her husband.
Her words, deeds, and actions not only widened the distance between her and her husband, and eventually made it an insurmountable gap, but also affected their children, causing them to form a strong bond with their mother. A united front to fight against the father who, although his body is still smooth and strong, his spirit is gradually declining and drying up.
The united front of mother and children brought pain and disaster to the isolated father, and did no good to anyone else in the Morel family.
The endless conflict that happened to parents, especially the irreconcilable collision between spirit and body, reappeared in mother and son.
In contrast, the discord between the husband and wife did not bring much mental torture to Mrs. Morel, because she had lost confidence in her husband and had no love for him in the first place. What a hope.
After the death of the eldest son, who did not make the mother proud, the second son Paul gradually became the mother's only spiritual harbor and a channel for her to vent her unknown fire and inner pain.
She loves her son and hates that iron cannot be made into steel. She constantly encourages and urges Paul to become famous and have a family, join the upper class society, and win glory for her mother; she also tries every means to control her son mentally so that he will not change his mind. Love others, especially other women, in order to satisfy the shortcomings of their own marriage.
This intense and possessive love suffocates the son, forcing him to try to escape whenever he can.
During his short escape, he was often pulled by his mother's invisible mental shackles, causing him to suffer so much that he couldn't help himself.
The relationship with his girlfriend Miriam was also a process for young Paul to experience mental pain.
Due to their similar interests, they came into contact with each other more and more frequently, developed feelings, and became a pair of lovers who should be said to be very suitable.
However, the sad thing is that Miriam also pursues spiritual satisfaction too much. Not only does she lack sexual desire, but like Paul's mother, she attempts to possess Paul spiritually and devour Paul spiritually.
This made her and Paul's mother become tit-for-tat "love rivals", and they were destined to be defeated by the old lady who was more possessive and could easily gain the upper hand by relying on blood relations.
Another woman named Clara next to Paul is also a deformed person with a separation of spirit and body.
She lived in the lower class of society, separated from her husband, and had a passionate relationship with Paul for a period of time.
Paul obtained physical satisfaction from this "***".
However, this "carnival-like" fusion is a lifeless and fleeting combination.
Unable to find comfort in Miriam, Paul needs to seek self-balance psychologically and to prove his masculine ability sexually.
Since she cannot get satisfaction from her husband, Clara also needs to show her charm and seek self-balance physically.
As a mother, the complex between her and her sons, especially her second son Paul, and the heart-wrenching soul battle brought incurable wounds to the poor mother until she became depressed. Unhappy and helpless, he passed away.
