Mixed Faces

"Mixed Faces" by Roy Norton is a lighthearted story that kicks off with a case of mistaken identity involving Judge J. Woodworth-Granger, a man of great importance, and James Gollop, a happy-go-lucky salesman. It all starts in a hotel when a porter mixes them up, causing all sorts of funny problems because the Judge is all about being proper and respected, while Gollop just wants to have a good time. Throughout the story, the book looks at what makes each man who he is and how the two men deal with different parts of life. It suggests that the their paths may be on a collision course, with each man's behavior conflicting with what the other desires. The overall tone of the book is fun, setting the stage for a delightful journey into their mix-ups, their different ways of seeing the world, and whatever the mix-up brings to each of their lives.
