Byron's Complete Works

Orion Publishing Co

Byron's free-spirited lifestyle combined with his rare poetic gift to make him one of the foremost figures of the Romantic Era. This collection of his poems, richly varied in mood and content, captures the essence of his great achievement. Among the thirty-one poems included are convivial song-like poems, love poems, travel poems, humorous and satiric poems. Shorter works such as the famous "She Walks in Beauty," "Stanzas to Augusta" and "So We'll Go No More a Roving" are well represented. Also here are important longer works — "The Prisoner of Chillon," "Beppo," "The Vision of Judgment," all unabridged — and lyrics excerpted from Don Juan, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, and the play Manfred. Taken together, these are poems that draw readers quickly into the passions, humors, and convictions of a poet whose life and work truly embodied the Romantic spirit.

Collectors edition! This is the original Thing Itself: not only is it caustic, sharp, and hysterically funny (remember that, readers -- it's meant to be FUNNY!), but Byron dictated a lot of it out loud while he was shaving in the morning. I'm not kidding. Read this brilliant stuff, and imagine a guy just making it up as he goes along, in the bathroom while he's shaving. (Yup, the original freestyle r -- unbelievable.) It's worth reading the whole long thing just to come across gems like: "Her first thought was to cut off Juan's head; Her second was to cut off his... acquaintance." And as to its enduring relevance, well, consider Byron's razor-sharp two-line appraisal of women's rights in Muslim countries... "I speak of Christian lands in this comparison --- Where wives, at least, are seldom kept in garrison." Kick back, relax, and have yourself a Lord Byron: ice-cold, pure, and bottled at the source.
