In this innovative hybrid of biography, memoir, and criticism, Eric G. Wilson describes how John Keats gave him solace during a bout of mental illness in spring 2012. While on a tour of the principal sites in Keats's life - ranging from his London medical school to the small room in Rome where he died - Wilson discovered analogies between the poet's troubles and his own.
