"The vivid and dramatic life of Lady Caroline Lamb, whose scandalous love affair with Lord Byron overshadowed her own creativity and desire to break free from society's constraints."--Amazon.com Lady Caroline Lamb's scandalous love affair with Lord Byron overshadowed her own creativity-- and her desire to beak free from society's constraints. Fraser animates the life of this true "free spirit" who was far more than the strictures of her era allow her to be. Her marriage to the Hon. William Lamb (later Lord Melbourne) was at first happy, despite opposition from members of his family. An obsession with Byron came to define much of her later life-- as well as influence her own writing as well as that of Byron. -- adapted from jacket |
