Empty wigs Birds (ornithology) Part of its curse but'Empty Wigs' is a hallucinatory ride through the twentieth century that will cement Jonathan Meades as one of the great literary writers of our age. It moves from bloody Algiers in 1962 to the Marches in the late nineteenth century, from Lneburg Heath to suburban southern England. Its characters are damned and doomed. They exert free will so make terrible choices. Their appetites are base. Their lives are without end. They lurch to extremes.
