No you tell me what’s your problem? This isn’t even relevant to the story, and I don’t remember it happening probably because it’s just a minor detail. You’re so obsessed with cultural and racial themes that it ruined your ability to enjoy a good book.ever thought of that?

Byron is the weakest of the Romantics by far. Or second-weakest; I may like Shelley even less than him. But Byron's not doing anything new or innovative, just writing plain old heroic couplets.
