The attached original photograph forms part of the description. ISBN-13: 9781741966459 Mad, bad and dangerous to know, Lord Byron was not just one of
England's finest poets, he was also history's first true rock star, living a
life of abundant extravagance and shocking scandal that led eventually to
self-imposed exile in Europe. Through his travels, Byron carved out a new life,
remaining true to himself to the end. So when journalist Julietta Jameson is
compelled by an emotional crisis to embark on her own period of personal exile,
whose footsteps better to follow in than those of her beloved Byron? Her
suitcase filled with his verse, Julietta traces the path of this luminary poet
through the Alps, across Italy and over the Mediterranean, and in doing so,
learns to live her life in truth, just as he did. A story of parallel journeys
- that of the infamous Lord Byron, and of a woman on a heartfelt mission to
reclaim her life. Julietta explores the flipside of Byron's celebrity - his
insecurities, fears and regrets. And against the sumptuous backdrop of Switzerland,
Italy and Greece, she reminds us that it's never too late to rediscover
yourself. All items have been cleaned with a disinfectant solution for your protection. Postage includes tracking. Please check my Store listings under Literary Fiction, or Popular Fiction for similar items. Combined postage is welcome.
