Beppo: A Ventian Story (1818)

Lord George Gordon Byron

Beppo: A Venetian Story is a narrative poem written by the famous English poet, Lord Byron, and published in 1818. The poem tells the story of a young Venetian woman named Laura who is abandoned by her husband, and subsequently begins an affair with a Turkish merchant named Beppo. The poem is set in the beautiful and romantic city of Venice, and depicts the city's vibrant culture and colorful characters. The narrative is filled with humor, irony, and satire, and is considered to be one of Byron's most light-hearted and playful works. The poem also explores themes of love, infidelity, and societal norms, and is a masterful example of Byron's poetic style and wit. Overall, Beppo: A Venetian Story is a delightful and entertaining work of literature that showcases Byron's talent as a storyteller and poet.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
