Cathythoughts @squirrelbrain far too restrained !! 😁 5y
TrishB My daughter had me laughing about Byron today. One of her friends in English today thought that Lord Byron and George Gordon Byron were different people. Charlotte did a lot of eye rolling! 5y
quietlycuriouskate I'll pass (on both the gin and Lord B) but if you should find a Shelley vodka.... The Flask of Anarchy, maybe. 😀 5y

Lady Caroline Lamb may have called Lord Byron "mad, bad and dangerous to know" but he had the last word. #Remember #PoetryMatters
Do you think she's made him #paranoid? #AnglophileApril

#FierceFeb #Criminal

It's criminal that Byron's friends burnt his memoirs after his death. Frederic Raphael's biography is a rollicking read but doesn't seem to be in the Litsy database so I assume it's out of print. That's criminal too.

batsy Such a shame it's out of print! The one review of it on Goodreads makes it sound so good. 6y
Centique @CarolynM yay - we‘re both Byron fans it seems! I‘m going to use him for a prompt later in the month 😊 I‘d love to read this bio too. 6y
CarolynM @batsy @Centique It's only short but Raphael is such a good writer and he presents it almost as an adventure - the story rockets along. I would definitely recommend it. (edited) 6y

robinb @monalyisha yes we do, don‘t we?! 😊 The colors are beautiful, but it‘s not quite as large as it appeared on website. That‘s my bad though. The measurements were listed, I just didn‘t pay attention to them. Still a nice bag! ❤️ 6y
monalyisha @robinb Oh, that‘s good to know! I probably wouldn‘t have looked before buying either. 😅 It would be nice if they had a picture with a model, for scale. 6y
robinb @monalyisha I actually did see a model carrying it! It looked longer in that picture but maybe she was carrying a heavy load??!! 🤣🤣🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y

One of the many things on my shelf that was introduced to me in college, but that I so rarely return to. Oh Byron, you rapscallion bisexual lord of ridiculousness.
