Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First edition. 32 pages. A graphic novel classic from one of the world's best-known cartoonists Gentle man Jim is the story of Jim Bloggs, an imaginative toilet cleaner who, dissatisf ied with his station in life, devotes his time to envisioning a world beyond it. His walls are lined with books l…ike Out in the Silver West, The Boys' Book of P irates, and Executive Opportunities, which provide fodder for his ruminations on career change. Encouraged by his wife, who is also eager to incorporate more ad venture into her life, Jim sets out to bring these dreams to fruition by accumul ating various accoutrements, only to discover that the life of an executive, an artist, or a cowboy is more complicated and costly than it appears. Jim's childl ike understanding of the world that surrounds him is enhanced by Raymond Briggs' s subtle and inventive illustrations. Fantasies are portrayed as organic clouds that move between and overlap outlined panels of his reality, and myopic Jim is drawn smaller and softer than the policemen and bureaucrats interested in impedi ng his search for adventure. As he begins to infringe more seriously on the law, the city workers and their speech boxes become increasingly angular, much like the rigid rules and regulations restricting his sincere quest. With this playful style, Briggs expertly transforms common feelings of inadequacy into an endeari ng and enjoyable experience that speaks across generations, concluding with an o ptimistic implication that even a misfortunate outcome can be better than no cha nge at all. This classic novel, originally published in 1980, is presented by Dr awn & Quarterly in a new edition.
