Byron lies dying and imagines his life and loves under review in a heavenly court

Seriously ill on a military campaign in Greece, Lord Byron imagines his life and loves under review in a heavenly court.

Among the witnesses called are the infamous Lady Caroline Lamb and Byron’s somewhat purer wife, Annabella.

Will Byron be judged a poet and liberator or a seducer and libertine?

Mad, bad and dangerous to know!
