This magnificent biography is the standard account of one of the legendary figures of early 20th century England. Behind the image of the 'young Apollo, golden-haired' is revealed a man far more complex and radical than is popularly supposed. He emerges from these pages as a wit, a scholar deeply read, a partisan Socialist, and as the focus of many aspects of the anti-Victorian mood of the years leading up to 1914. The romantic legend is set in its human context of struggle, perplexity and suffering.
