Perspective The Portrayal of Artist Esther Joy White is a tour-De-force of gritty literary realism, taking readers on one of the most improbable, yet authentic stories of personal growth and triumph.
The novel begins by tracing the humble roots of abandoned waif, Esther White, from a dilapidated farm in Lower Michigan, under the indomitable sway of a bible-thumping grandmother. This is well-mined territory, scary and fanatical, yet in deft strokes of storytelling takes unexpected turns. Early on, we witness Esther struggle through hard-fought journeys of sexual awakenings in tandem with horrific domestic sexual abuse. Amidst these travails and uncertainties, we witness a personal flowing of nascent genius, the eye of a young artist finding beauty and perspective where others see flatness and loss. It is this intermingling of apparent hopelessness against inner spirit that elevates Perspective The Portrayal of Artist Esther Joy White to a must-read narrative of human endurance.
There is nothing certain in the early parts of this 80,000-word women’s fiction. All is in flux as it is in real life. The slow evolution of brilliance amidst ramshackle impoverishment, the improbable emergence of Esther, to world renowned artist, eventual Gay/Lesbian and AIDS activist, in her dying years holds together. It is an incredible journey, and yet authentic and told with uncanny directness that will leave readers stunned and humbled.
Perspective The Portrayal of Artist Esther Joy White speaks to the indelible font of hope and perseverance within the human soul.
A Word from my Mentor – Lucien Barriere Literary Prize winning author Michael Collins
Please give due consideration to the depth and realness of this novel. I’ve worked extensively with Marc and believe he has captured the female voice; I easily compare it to the women in “The Hours”. His ability to make Esther’s entire life believable from a first person perspective is both brilliant and mysterious. Using small towns in Michigan as backdrops he paints a picture so vivid that you feel her joy and struggle with her as the pages of her life unfold. To his credit as an author he has been able to capture and blend a “Coming of Age” and “Women’s Fiction” as completely as he was able to unnerve readers with his first novel a gritty psychological thriller “What Killed Jonathon Harnish?”

Perspective is one of those novels that is in a unique canon of works. Yes a male writes the voice of a female. Yes I as a reader felt I befriended Esther Joy White. Yes I wanted to know more about aspects of her life and there wasn't anything left hanging.This book shouldn't frighten or disuade male readers either. There are alot of great scenes with Esther in her social life as well as some very interesting action scenes as well that male readers will enjoy.
It reminds me of my favorite book "Middlesex" and if you loved that novel, you will undoubtedly love this one, like I have!!

Once I started this book, I couldn't put it down. I read it in just a couple of days, staying up late to read as much as I could! Just when I thought I figured out what was going to happen, there was a twist that I hadn't expected. This happened more than once and I loved it every time it did. It was just like life...the unexpected comes and your life goes off in another direction. Very good reading!
This book is a complete 360 from his first book what killed Jonathan Harnish, this man is a genre jumper! absolutely brilliant and scary that he can write completely from a female perspective this book is true to life and very good read. I enjoyed it to the last drop.
From the author of What Killed Jonathon Harnish.... This is a complete 360 from his first book! I find it amazing that a male author was able to write a book from the perspective of a woman and nail it! This book grabs you from the beginning and lets you grow with Esther as she experiences the life of a child dealing with issues that carry into her adulthood. By the end you are rooting for Esther and feel like she is a personal friend of yours. Great read!
I was so impressed with Marc Hopkins 'What Killed Jonathon Harnish' that I immediately had to read his next book 'Perspective The Portrayal of Artist Esther Joy White'. It took only six hours and I was left in AWE!!! To think that this is written by a man is amazing in itself. He makes the characters so real and their experiences so true it gave me goosebumps as well as made me cry a time or two. This is an excellent read by a very talented author. Kudos to you Marc!
