Published to coincide with the 200th anniversary of Byron's death, this biography explores his life and work through some of his most resonant correspondence.
What The Reviewers Say
A rounded portrait, venereal scars and all, of one of the prime movers of the Romantic movement.
Ingenious.
Its debt to existing biographies is large, but its mosaic structure deftly deals with Byron’s evolutions.
We hear Byron’s rapid-fire conversational voice on the page.
