How about those annoying teenage geniuses who graduate medical school when their seventeen! Thanks for the tip about Emily's Substack. Shall check it out.

Thank you for the mention! And thank God I finally have a Lord Byron fact to share at parties.

Laughed my butt off at this. But it was also very well written and informative, just like your usual fare. Thanks for sharing!

I fondly remember the Spanish Steps, but somehow missed the deathbed of my favorite Romantic poet (Keats could out-ode anyone, alive or dead!). To be fair, it was nighttime when we went, and across the street was literally the most upscale McDonald's I've ever seen. Forgive me for my American myopia!

The Keats-Shelley house is easy to miss! I only knew about it because I'd found it through research, it's not very clear!
