More about the book
The narrative centers around a visionary rhyme composed by Shelley, featuring a whimsical Witch who creates a unique sexless companion for her adventures. Set against the backdrop of the San Guiliano Baths near Pisa in 1820, this work showcases Shelley's imaginative prowess despite his limited publication during his lifetime due to his radical views. Tragically, his untimely death at 29 cut short a promising career, leaving behind a legacy of profound creativity and unfulfilled potential, as noted by Mary Shelley in her reflections on his work.
