The Violent Friendship of Esther Johnson

Trudy J. Morgan-Cole

4.9/5 (27106 ratings)

Description:One of literary history's most enduring mysteries, Esther Johnson was Jonathan Swift's friend, secretary, confidante, mentor, and muse. She was the Stella of his poems and letters -- and possibly, according to some, his secret wife. From the handful of facts we know about Esther Johnson and the few surviving pieces of writing credited to her, Trudy Morgan-Cole has created a brilliantly realized portrait of a remarkable woman and her lifelong relationship with one of the giants of Western literature. The Violent Friendship of Esther Johnson sifts through the tangled record of history to create a fictional re-imagining of the relationship between Jonathan Swift and his Stella -- a woman well known to literary history only because of her connection to Swift, and remembered by most people under a name not her own. This novel gives Esther Johnson back not only her name but her voice.
