"It shows how, unhappy in his personal life, Southey sought intellectual and emotional fulfillment outside his tepid marriage, first from Mary Barker, and then from Caroline Bowles who became his second wife. Speck has explored Southey's full correspondence, not simply that which appeared in the editions edited by his descendants, and the letters reveal a man of considerably greater emotional complexity than previously assumed." "This is the first fully rounded life for sixty years, setting Southey in historical context and restoring him to the map of English literature."--BOOK JACKET.
