About Possession: A Romance

A.S. Byatt's 1990 Booker Prize-winning novel — contemporary scholars Roland and Maud discover that Victorian poets Ash and LaMotte had a secret affair, and as they investigate, fall in love themselves. Byatt invented all the Victorian poetry and letters; Possession is simultaneously a love story, academic detective novel, Victorian pastiche, and meditation on how the past possesses us.
