The Last Attachment: The Story Of Byron And Teresa Guiccioli by Iris Origo is a biography that explores the romantic relationship between the famous poet Lord Byron and Teresa Guiccioli, a young Italian countess. The book delves into the complex and passionate affair between the two, which began when Teresa was just 19 years old and Byron was in his thirties. The author examines the cultural and social context of the time, as well as the personal histories of the two lovers, to shed light on the intensity of their connection. Origo also explores the impact of the relationship on both Byron's writing and Teresa's life, as well as the scandal it caused in the society of the day. The book draws on a wealth of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and contemporary accounts, to provide a vivid and intimate portrait of one of the most famous love affairs in literary history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
