'What had happened to the lost manuscripts, what train of chances
took Rolfe to his death in Venice? The Quest continued' One summer
afternoon A.J.A. Symons is handed a peculiar, eccentric novel that
he cannot forget and, captivated by this unknown masterpiece,
determines to learn everything he can about its mysterious author.
The object of his search is Frederick Rolfe, self-titled Baron
Corvo - artist, rejected candidate for priesthood and author of
serially autobiographical fictions - and its story is told in this
'experiment in biography': a beguiling portrait of an insoluble
tangle of talents, frustrated ambitions and self-destruction.
