We’d like confidential testimonials from the servants or staff of well-known people. As an incentive, we reprint a winner of this competition from back in the 1950s for Henry James, although in this instance we would like the well-known figure to still be alive: “I’ve worked for Mr James for 20 years. They tell me you might find yourself in one of his books but there’s nothing to worry about. I tried to read one once; too artistic for anyone to know it was you, even if it was.”
