Patronage

A bit from Norma Clarke's biography of Laetitia Pilkington, one of Swift's circle in early eighteenth-century Dublin before she became a "fallen woman". Nice to see this book getting so much attention in England, not sure if it's been published here yet...

  1. One wonders, any relation to "Karl Pilkington" on the Ricky Gervais podcast??
