I cannot think of a better summing-up of a far from easy writer' The Times 'A vivid, amusing yet heartbreaking picture of Shelley emerges: poetry, politics, travel, friendships, love-affairs, scandals, mysteries, children, visions - all gracefully combined' London Review of Books From the celebrated biographer of Charles Dickens: A Life and The Invisible Woman, Shelley and His World is an ideal introduction to the poet's life and work.
