From March to August 1812, Lady Caroline embarked on a well-publicised affair with Lord Byron. He was 24, and she was 26. She spurned his attention on their first meeting, which was at a society event at Holland House. According to the memoirs of her friend Sydney, Lady Morgan, Lady Caroline claimed she coined the phrase "mad, bad, and dangerous to know" soon after she had met the poet. It became his lasting epitaph, but there is no contemporary evidence to prove that she coined the famous phrase at the time. [3] She wrote him a fan letter. His response was to visit her because of her high social status and then to pursue her passionately. [11] [12] OMG! Isn’t it enchanting idea to read a book about two powerful women from different time lines who want to raise their voices and tell their stories! One of them is in Paris, searching for the deepest secrets hid behind a remarkable drawing with a charming French guy carries his descendant Alexandre Dumas’ name! And the other woman is a haseki, leaving behind the walls of Ottoman Harem, telling her secret love triangle story which resulted tragically! Another thing that I found really annoying about this book is that, despite it trying to make a point about the fact that women have the power to make their own stories, a lot of the plot in this book revolves around Khayyam's relationships. I just thought that was an interesting choice to make?? Also I didn't really care for either boy in this case and I was a lot more interested in the mystery aspect, so all of the romantic bits of this kind of dragged for me. That rhetoric cuts against the grain of representative democracy, which recognises the legitimacy of dissent and makes sincere efforts to negotiate between opposing interests.

I'm going to be honest: I went into this knowing next to nothing about it, so imagine my delight when I realized it was about a French-American Muslim girl set in Paris on an art history sleuthing mission mixed with poetry and philosophy. Like, this hit the nail on the head for what I like, and honestly, I was hooked.

Meeting the adorable descendant of Alexandre Dumas and discovering that he, too, is conducting historical studies could prove to be beneficial. And exponentially more entertaining.
