Acclaimed biographer of James Joyce, Edna O'Brien has written a
"jaunty" (The New Yorker) biography that suits her fiery and
charismatic subject. She follows Byron from the dissipations of
Regency London to the wilds of Albania and the Socratic pleasures
of Greece and Turkey, culminating in his meteoric rise to fame at
the age of twenty-four. With "a novelist's understanding of tempo
and characterization" (Miami Herald), O'Brien captures the spirit
of the man and creates an indelible portrait that explodes the
Romantic myth. Byron, as brilliantly rendered by O'Brien, is the
poet as rebel, imaginative and lawless, and defiantly immortal.
