John Keats.

Literature Fun Facts- I hope you enjoy. Cheers. Thomas.

John Keats was only about 5 feet tall—nevertheless, by the time he died at age 24, he was a literary giant, surpassing any other 24-year old English writer.

We can only wonder if Keats were to live to be an old man if his popularity today would exceed that of Shakespeare.

Height of other British Romantic Authors:
    William Blake: 5 feet William Wordsworth: 5 feet, 9 inches Percy Shelley: 5 feet, 11 inches
