Sour Fruit - Lord Byron, Love & Sex

Both Lord Byron’s poetry and his fame as a seducer enchanted and scandalized his time. The Sour Fruit. Lord Byron, Love & Sex examines the poet’s versatile sexuality, from his liaisons to his grand loves, female and above all male, in an era when homosexuality could lead to the gallows.
