In 1809, Byron set off on a European odyssey, only to return to England and enter into a short-lived marriage with Annabella Milbanke. The marriage's collapse drove him into exile, where he found solace in the arms of Claire Clairmont and the Countess Teresa Gamba Guiccioli.

“If you want to see into man’s soul, start with this self-portrait. It’s magnificent.” (The Guardian)
"These are a splendid introduction, leading us from his university days, setting up a bear to sit for a fellowship at Cambridge, to his very last few weeks of life in Greece, bled to death by incompetent doctors. And between drinking with jockeys, romping with whores and writing, writing, writing.” (Good Book Guide)
