Glenarvon: Valancourt Classics
Autor Caroline Lamb, Lady Caroline Lamb Editat de Deborah Lutzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2007
Set against the backdrop of the violent Irish Revolution of 1798, Glenarvon tells the story of the doomed love of the married Lady Calantha for the dashing revolutionary Lord Glenarvon. Though published anonymously, contemporary readers immediately recognised in Calantha and Glenarvon the counterparts of Lamb and Byron and in many of the minor characters satiric portraits of some of the leading lights of London high society. The novel became an instant success, going through numerous editions and resulting in Lamb's being blackballed from fashionable society.
The Valancourt Books edition includes the unabridged text of the first edition as well as Lamb's preface from the expurgated second edition. This edition also features a new introduction and notes by Deborah Lutz and an index to characters in Glenarvon and their real-life counterparts.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Published anonymously in 1816, the same year in which her husband's family attempted to have her declared insane, Glenarvon tells the story of the love affair that shook London Society. Few of the early eager readers could fail to recognize the author as the irresponsible Calantha, William Lamb as her long-suffering husband, Lord Avondale, or the legendary Lord Byron himself as the strangely and tragically irresistible Glenarvon.
