Me and Mr. Jiggs
No Customer Reviews
John Digby's fourteen tales in Me and Mr Jiggs are riveting, risqu?, and hilarious. The setting is the bombed-out London that Digby had known as a child growing up in the aftermath of World War II. These tales are told in Cockney rhyming slang, which gives the writing a unique verve, freshness, and charm. Mr. Jiggs, the silent friend of the narrator, paradoxically prompts the telling of scandalous anecdotes about people passing by. Despite the unique place and time, the experiences are timeless expressions of human nature. Digby's stories are seductive; they lure you into an enticing world where at every turn the marvelous is revealed through seemingly ordinary lives.
