"'Jack Maggs' is well written. Carey's sentences are an elaborate pastiche of nineteen-century decorum laced with modern wit. There is a skilful deployment throughout of underworld slang of the time....I don't want to leave the impression that 'Jack Maggs' is just a literary pleasure....Anyone who cares at all for fiction should read it."Carey, Peter is the author of 'Jack Maggs', published 1999 under ISBN 9780679760375 and ISBN 0679760377.
