Among the possessions seized from Theobald Wolfe Tone upon his arrest in 1798 were two copies of Belmont Castle. Much more than a mere youthful literary squib, Belmont Castle is an elaborate roman à clef, satirizing the lives of several prominent figures of the Anglo-Irish establishment and redressing a painful love affair from Tone's past.
