George Gordon Lord Byron : Cain, a Mystery

Sharon Turner (lawyer) to John Murray, 31 January 1822: 'Mr. Shadwell, whom I have just seen, has told me that he had read "Cain" some time ago, -- that he thinks it contains nothing but what a bookseller can be fairly justified in publishing, that it is not worse in many parts than "Paradise Regained" and in "Paradise Lost" [...] He is King's Counsel and a religious man. He thinks it can hurt no reasonable mind. He will lead the case.'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group:      Print: Book
