Hi, I'm Alexandra. I used to have an account here back in 2006ish (username: bysshe). Since then I've finished school, done a degree in English Literature at Oxford, moved to Rome, and written two novels!
I was partly inspired to move to Rome by my love of Keats and Shelley, and I'm still a huge fan of Romantic poetry. I love 19th century literature in general, but I'm trying to read more contemporary literature these days.
My novel "In Exile" is about Dionysus being re-born in Rome in the 20th century and creating a new teenage following. A link, for anyone who likes books about Rome/Greek mythology/teenage girls joining cults and going crazy
Looking forward to finding people with similar interests. :)
