勞瑞一生著作出版其實很少,相比之下他去世時卻留下了大量的未完成的手稿。在他的兩部小說中,在火山下 (1947)目前被普遍認為是傑出之作,也是20世紀最傑出的小說之一(《當代文庫》 20世紀百大英文小說第11名).[1] 這本書展現的勞瑞的寫作手法特點,包括重點使用自傳式的素材,並且充滿了複雜的、隱喻性的象徵手法寫作。在火山下描述了一系列複雜、讓人難以接受的惡劣人際關係,而寫作背景則是墨西哥的火山噴發。
火山:關於勞瑞的生死調查 (1976)是加拿大電影局拍攝的獲得奧斯卡提名的紀錄片,製片人是Donald Brittain and Robert A. Duncan,導演則是 Brittain and John Kramer.[2] 該片開創了對勞瑞「意外事故死亡」的調查,然後倒敘講述作者生活。片中還包括勞瑞作品的節選,由Richard Burton朗讀,背景則拍攝於墨西哥、美國、加拿大和英格蘭。[3]
