John Keats died of tuberculosis at 25 two centuries ago, but his poetry is still celebrated, studied and widely anthologized. His short but intense life has been the subject of many biographies, which all too often cast him as a delicate, tragic figure. Acclaimed literary biographer and critic Lucasta Miller discovers a different, more complex man in her new book, Keats: A Brief Life in Nine Poems and One Epitaph.
