Klappentext Travelling in Byron's footsteps through Albania, awarding-winning novelist Tessa de Loo reappraises and sheds new light on Byron's life and work. '[One notes] the seriousness and humour with which De Loo laces her contribution to superior travel literature... She gives her report in the form of letters to Byron (My dear friend, My dearest George) alternated with chapters where she recounts Byron's journey. However euphoric De Loo's report is not too affected, it stays lively and informative... is a book of contrasts, surprises and disappointments, written cheerfully and with eye for details.'
