Yes, read it again! As a teenager! By the time I was in Geneve writing my most successful novel I was married to Percy Shelley and I only was 18 years old. The novel came out due to a ghost competition. While I was in Geneve, I used to meet Byron, my husband Percy and the psychologist John Polidori.
