Dyma stori anghonfensiynol a rhyfedd sy'n darllen yn arbennig o rwydd.

Mae syniad y llyfr hwn yn un gwych: mae person ffug (h.y. 'dirgel ddyn') sy'n cael ei gofrestru i gyrraedd cwota dosbarth nos yn dod yn berson o gig a gwaed: Ann Griffiths. Mae hanner cyntaf y stori yn arbennig: mae Ann Griffiths yn gymeriad dirgel ac mae ei gorffennol cywilyddus yn peri syndod a braw i'r darllenydd. Yn yr un modd, mae Mr Cadwaladr (arweinydd y dosarth nos) yn gymeriad real ac rwy'n hoff iawn o'r amrywiol gyfeiriadau at ffilm a sinema sy'n cyfoethogi naws y llyfr. Er hynny, o ganlyniad i natur ôl-fodernaidd Dirgel Ddyn, nid oeddwn yn teimlo fod y plot wedi cyrraedd yr uchafbwynt hwnnw sy'n ddisgwyliedig i gyfrol sy'n seiliedig ar syniad mor drawiadol.
