Klappentext zu „John Keats - A New Life “
A landmark new biography of Keats, exploding entrenched conceptions of him and revealing the flesh and blood poet: a passionate man driven by ambition but prey to doubt, sure of his vocation while resentful of the obstacles in his way, devoured by sexual desire and in thrall to alcohol and opium. Roe is the first biographer to provide a full account of Keats's childhood, and his account is full of fresh insight and revelations.

Rezension zu „John Keats - A New Life “
"This new book promises to become the definitive biography of one of the major Romantic poets. Keats has of course been well served by biographers, but what Roe adds to these Lives is his own superbly detailed, finely discriminating understanding of and research into the events of Keats's life, of individuals in his family and wider circle, and of the larger historical contexts in which the poet lived and wrote. The result is a book that supplements in countless minor details what is already known about the poet. For decades to come, readers and scholars of Keats will rely on the wealth of detail that Roe has uncovered and recorded."--Andrew Bennett, author of "Keats, Narrative and Audience: The Posthumous Life of Writing"--Andrew Bennett
