A Perpetual Love Affair
Episode 1 of 3: Byron in Venice

Henry James described his relationship with Venice as "a perpetual love affair," and in Bryon's case this is very apt. Byron arrived in Venice in 1816, following great scandal in England. He had not meant to stay long but soon fell in love - notably with the wife of his landlord - and his letters chronicle the development both of this affair and of his eccentric decision to learn Armenian.

This selection of Byron's letters is read by Mark Meadows.

Abridged and produced in Bristol by Christine Hall.
