Jessie Trim

Jessie Trim is a 19th-century English fiction by novelist, playwright, printer, and journalist B. L. Farjeon. In 35 years of his career, Farjeon produced nearly 60 novels. Many of his works were famous worldwide. Excerpt from Jessie Trim "As my earliest remembrances are associated with my grandmother's wedding, it takes natural precedence here of all other matter. I was not there, of course, but I seem to see it through a mist, and I have a distinct impression of certain actors in the scene. These are: a smoke-dried monkey of a man in stone, my grandmother, my grandfather (whom I never saw in the flesh), and a man with a knob on the top of his head, making a meal off his finger-nails."
