Description
The Late Lord Byron by Doris Langley Moore is a biography that sheds new light on the poet's life after his death. For decades, no book has explored the immediate aftermath of Byron's life, uncovering surprising and intriguing discoveries about his character and those closest to him. Moore sifts through various witnesses, their motivations and credentials, to reveal how much questionable evidence has been accepted in accounts of Byron's life. Drawing on unpublished material from archives such as the Lovelace Papers, Murray manuscripts, and Hobhouse collections, she presents a corrected picture that is both compelling and persuasive. This biography offers a fresh perspective on one of literature's most fascinating figures, making it an engaging read for anyone interested in literary detective work and human drama.
