The Uninhibited Byron: An Account of His Sexual ConfusionCrown, 1970 - 354 pages "With copious documentation the book examines the path leading him from May Gray's bed to a life embracing incest, homosexuality, sodomy, promiscuity, and his participation in orgies. Grebanier probes Byron's love-hate relationship with his mother; his fanatical attachment to boys in his English public school; his unrequited love for Mary Chaworth when he was sixteen, over which he brooded for years."--Book jacket. |
