Debt to Pleasure
John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester: In the Eyes of His Contemporaries and in His Own Poetry and Prose
Rochester
Incontestably the greatest of the Restoration poets and reprobates, Rochester is presented in The Debt to Pleasure both in his own words and in the words of those who loved and loathed him.
The book is a mosaic in which the poet's voice and the voice of his age sound with startling, ribald and riotous clarity.
