Here’s one for all the Jadoo fans. This lively little story is obviously fictional, but based on some of John’s real experiences in India. The combination of fact and fiction in some of his work for the men’s magazines became somewhat of a problem for his agent. For more on that, see this excerpt from Alex Jackinson’s Cocktail Party for the Author. And for John’s own reflections on that part of his career, see this article from Writer’s Digest.
John labeled this “#1” because it was the first article he wrote after moving to Barcelona. It was, of course, too fictional to be included in Jadoo.
I’ll post this in two parts. Meanwhile, Happy, Merry, and New!
