Don Juan

The poem presents a satirical twist on the classic tale of Don Juan, portraying him as a figure constantly pursued and abandoned by women, rather than the typical seducer. Lord Byron describes it as an "Epic Satire," reflecting his uncertainty about its direction throughout the cantos. Although left unfinished due to Byron's untimely death before completing the seventeenth canto, the work gained immense popularity for its bold exploration of sexuality and controversial themes, capturing the attention of readers during its time.
