Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of M. G. Lewis, Vol. 1 of 2: With Many Pieces in Prose and Verse Never Before Published It can scarcely be deemed necessary to preface the following pages by lengthened explanatory or descriptive account of their nature and objects. It is no exaggeration to say that the subject of them was more talked of than any other man of his day. Byron himself was not so striking an example of a young gentleman "waking up one morning and finding himself famous;" and this without the slightest anticipation of such a destiny. The author of "The Monk" was, to-day, a youth of twenty, utterly "unknown to fame," beyond the narrow limits of his own family circle; to-morrow, he was the most admired and abused of living writers. And to the day of his death he never lost this unenviable distinction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
