One of the most succeeded biographies about Lord Byron, written by André Maurois, member of the Académie Française

This doesn't strictly fit the Penguin theme; read it by mistake. Actually a bit better than Maurois' Shelley. Oh, not reviews? Then here goes. The first superstar, with all the attendant problems. One of the most entertaining biographies I've read in a long time.
