Miranda Seymour: In Byron’s Wake

In 1815, Annabella Milbanke married the notorious Lord Byron. Just one year later she fled, taking with her their baby daughter, Ada Lovelace. Byron himself escaped into exile and died as a revolutionary hero, aged 36. The one thing he had asked his wife to do was to make sure that their daughter never became a poet. Miranda Seymour has written a masterful portrait of two remarkable women, revealing how their turbulent lives were haunted by the dangerously enchanting spirit of that extraordinary father whom Ada never knew.
