Samuel Johnson was a writer, poet, essayist, moralist, literary critic, biographer, editor and lexicographer who made lasting contributions to English literature as a pioneer of the modern critical approach to literary works and the Father of the English Dictionary. Exploring the man behind the revered public figure, the author tells the remarkable story of a complex character struggling with personal demons and physical ailments, a man of great wit, strength and tenderness. This book is a compelling portrait of a figure towering above his time, a literary giant whose influence continues to impact the way we approach great works of literature even today.
