The Darrell Lea family adopted Shelton Lea as a playmate for its natural children. The family placed him in a psychiatric institution, he escaped from boys’ homes, lived rough and became a legendary poet. He was a romantic, bohemian outlaw- charming and contemptous of authority. He stepped far beyond the bounds of propriety, encouraging comparisons to Rimbaud and Villion. When he died he took his wizard words, his mesmerising performance, his rabble rousing, and he was hailed as a seer of our age. First Edition pp. 369 illusts #1118 Biography
