Byron's exuberant masterpiece tells of the adventures of Don
Juan, beginning with his illicit love affair at the age of sixteen in
his native Spain and his subsequent exile to Italy. Following a
dramatic shipwreck, his exploits take him to Greece, where he
is sold as a slave, and to Russia, where he becomes a
favourite of the Empress Catherine who sends him on to
England. Written entirely in ottava rima stanza form, Byron's
Don Juan blends high drama with earthy humour, outrageous
satire of his contemporaries (in particular Wordsworth and
Southey) and sharp mockery of Western societies, with
England coming under particular attack.For more than seventy
