Amanda Prantera's "Conversations with Lord Byron on Perversion, 163 Years After His Lordship's Death" is a unique and intellectually playful novel that imagines a series of posthumous dialogues with the infamous Romantic poet. Through a blend of historical research and speculative fiction, Prantera explores Byron's complex personality, his controversial life, and his enduring legacy, particularly concerning societal notions of "perversion." The narrative delves into the poet's wit, his philosophical musings, and his rebellious spirit, as if he were engaging in a contemporary discourse. This inventive work offers a fresh and provocative re-examination of Byron, challenging conventional interpretations and inviting readers to consider the timelessness of his ideas and the fluidity of moral boundaries.
