Description:
This volume, containing the letters written during the first year and a half of Byron's self-exile, reveal an increasing maturity and honesty that give them a new flavour. The very best letters are the ones from Italy, particularly those to Hobhouse, Kinnaird, Murray, and Moore. Freed from the inhibitions of English society, Byron's spirit seemed to expand and his letters to reflect the joie de vivre that, despite his melancholy, was an inherent part of his character.
