BYRON,M. A day with Robert Burns. By May Byron. London, Hodder & Stoughton, n.d. (48) p., 6 colour plates. Hardbound 21 cm (Back and boards gilt, colour portrait of Burns on the frontcover. Cover somewhat faded and worn at the extremities, some foxing) (The British writer and poet Mary Clarissa 'May' Byron (née Gillington) 1861-1936, wrote a 'series of biographies, describing the day-to-day lives of various artists. Her series Days with the Great Composers, Days with the Great Authors, Days with the Great Poets, and Days with Victorian Poets were published under a number of different pen names: her birth name, M. C. Gillington; her married name, May Byron; and her pseudonym, Maurice Clare. (...) May Byron's biographies were generally well-received, though some critics could not tell if they were first hand or fiction based on research. The books went on to inspire others, and her biography A Day with Shakespeare (written under the pseudonym 'Maurice Clare') was particularly influential for James Joyce in writing Ulysses'.
